Integrin aVβ3 (UniProt: P06756/P05106; also known as CD51/CD61) is encoded by the ITGAV/ITGB3 (also known as MSK8, VNRA, VTNR/GP3A) genes (Gene ID: 3685/3690) in human. Integrin aV is a single-pass membrane protein that heterodimerizes with a beta subunit. The exact combination of various a and β subunits dictates the binding specificity of integrins to different ECM components. Although both subunits are required for adhesion, the binding specificity primarily depends on the extracellular region of the a subunit. aV associates with either β-1, β-3, β-5, β-6, or β-8 in a non-covalent manner. The structural and functional diversity of the integrin family are based upon the pairing abilities of the individual a and β subunits. Integrins are not constitutively active. Activation of an integrin from low ligand-binding affinity state to high ligand-binding affinity state requires conformational change that can originate from either from their cytoplasmic or extracellular interactions. The recognition site for most integrins that bind the ECM consists of an RGD (arginine-glycine-aspartic acid) sequence. Integrins bind to their ligands with low affinity and this binding occurs only when a certain minimum number of integrins are present at specific points known as focal contacts. Integrin Vβ3 serves as a receptor for cytotactin, fibronectin, laminin, matrix metalloproteinase-2, osteopontin, osteomodulin, prothrombin, thrombospondin, vitronectin and von Willebrand factor. Both Integrin aV and β3 are single-pass membrane proteins that are synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-30 and 1-26, respectively), which is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature form. Their mature forms contain an extracellular domain (aa 31-992/27-718), a transmembrane domain (aa 993-1016/719-741), and a cytoplasmic domain (aa 1017-1048/742-788). This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
