Background

Integrin beta 8 (Integrin beta 8) is a 90 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein of the Integrin family of adhesion molecules. It associates with Integrin alpha V to form a receptor for vitronectin, fibrin, and the latency associated peptide (LAP). Binding to LAP promotes the proteolytic release of active TGF-beta from LAP. Integrin alpha V beta 8 is required for vascular morphogenesis in the embryonic brain and yolk sac. Within the extracellular domain, human Integrin  beta 8 shares 87% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Integrin  beta 8.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
