Key Applications
  • Flow Cytometry
  • Immunoprecipitation
  • Immunohistochemistry
  • Affects Function
Application NotesInhibition (Functional Activity): A previous lot of this antibody was shown to inhibit cell attachment by inhibiting SCC9 cell adhesion to human and EHS laminin, and laminin GD-2 peptide and potentiates the inhibition of SKOV-3 cell adhesion to EHS laminin by anti-integrin alpha 5 antibody GoH3. This antibody does not inhibit cell adhesion to fibronectin or collagen type IV.

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A previous lot of this antibody was used on acetone-fixed frozen human epithelial tissues including tongue, foreskin and ovary. Not for use on formalin-fixed tissue.

Flow Cytometry Analysis: A previous lot of this antibody stains human squamous cell carcinoma (SCC9), ovarian carcinoma (SKOV-3) and umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC).

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A previous lot of this antibody precipitates PAGE bands of 130 kDa (reduced) or 116 kDa and 135 kDa (non-reduced) from surface-biotinylated SCC9 or SKOV-3 cells.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryITGA3 encodes the integrin alpha 3 chain. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. Alpha chain 3 undergoes post-translational cleavage in the extracellular domain to yield disulfide-linked light and heavy chains that join with beta 1 to form an integrin that interacts with many extracellular-matrix proteins. The alpha 3 beta 1 integrin is known variously as: very late (activation) antigen 3 ('VLA-3'), very common antigen 2 ('VCA-2'), extracellular matrix receptor 1 ('ECMR1'), and galactoprotein b3 ('GAPB3').

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P26006 # Integrin alpha-3/beta-1 is a receptor for fibronectin, laminin, collagen, epiligrin, thrombospondin and CSPG4. Alpha- 3/beta-1 may mediate with LGALS3 the stimulation by CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration.
SIZE: 1066 amino acids; 118698 Da
SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. The alpha subunit is composed of an heavy and a light chain linked by a disulfide bond. Alpha-3 associates with beta-1. Interacts with HPS5.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Isoform alpha-3A is widely expressed. Isoform alpha-3B is expressed in brain and heart. In brain, both isoforms are exclusively expressed on vascular smooth muscle cells, whereas in heart isoform alpha-3A is strongly expressed on vascular smooth muscle cells, isoform alpha-3B is detected only on endothelial vein cells.
PTM: Isoform alpha-3A, but not isoform alpha-3B, is phosphorylated on serine residues. Phosphorylation increases after phorbol 12- myristate 13-acetate stimulation.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P26006 ## Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family. & Contains 7 FG-GAP repeats.
Molecular Weight116 kDa
