Anti-Integrin β1 Antibody, clone P5D2 (Azide Free)| MAB1959

Integrin beta 1, also known as CD29, is a 130 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein that forms noncovalent complexes with various Integrin alpha subunits (including alpha 1, alpha 2, alpha 3, alpha 4, alpha 5, and alpha 6) to form the functional receptors that bind to specific extracellular matrix proteins. Integrin receptors are involved in the regulation of a variety of important biological functions, including embryonic development, wound repair, hemostasis, and prevention of programmed cell death. They are also implicated in abnormal pathological states such as tumor directed angiogenesis, tumor cell growth, and metastasis. These heterodimeric receptors bridge the cytoplasmic actin cytoskeleton with proteins present in the extracellular matrix and/or on adjacent cells. Interactions between integrins and the extracellular matrix lead to activation of signal transduction pathways and regulation of gene expression.

Reacts with Human Integrin Beta 1.

Immunoprecipitation: A representative lot of this antibody clone was used in immunoprecipitation.

Immunohistochemistry: A representative lot of this antibody clone was used in immunohistochemistry (acetone fixation, no paraffin embedding).

ELISA: A representative lot of this antibody was used in ELISA.

Immunocytochemistry: A representative lot of this antibody clone was used in immunocytochemistry (paraformaldehyde fixation at less than 4%).

Functional Activity Assay: A representative lot of this antibody clone was used in cell attachment assay of SV-HFO cells with a characteristic spread morphology. In the presence of function-blocking mAbs to β1 integrin (P5D2), the cells attached but no longer spread, and displayed a rounded morphology with many cytoplasmic projections (Iba, K. et al., 2000).
