Designing a Western blot for Integrin alpha-L? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the ITGAL Western Blot GuideFacts about Integrin alpha-L.
Integrin alpha-L/beta-2 is a receptor for ICAM1, ICAM2, ICAM3 and ICAM4.
Integrin alpha-L/beta-2 is also a receptor for F11R (PubMed:11812992, PubMed:15528364).Involved in many different immune phenomena including leukocyte-endothelial cell interaction, cytotoxic T-cell mediated killing, and antibody dependent killing by granulocytes and monocytes. Contributes to natural killer cell cytotoxicity (PubMed:15356110).
