SHARPINing integrin inhibition

The activity state of integrins is crucial for cell adhesion, migration and differentiation, and is regulated predominantly by protein interactions of the integrin β cytoplasmic domain. SHARPIN is now shown to negatively regulate integrin activation by binding the α-integrin subunit and interfering...

Zusammenfassung:The activity state of integrins is crucial for cell adhesion, migration and differentiation, and is regulated predominantly by protein interactions of the integrin β cytoplasmic domain. SHARPIN is now shown to negatively regulate integrin activation by binding the α-integrin subunit and interfering with the association of the β cytodomain with activating proteins.
