Integrin alpha 7 Antibody (ITGA7)

Integrin alpha 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITGA7 gene. This gene is mapped to 12q13.2. Integrins mediate a wide spectrum of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, and thus play a role in cell migration, morphologic development, differentiation, and metastasis. This protein functions as a receptor for the basement membrane protein laminin-1. It is mainly expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscles and may be involved in differentiation and migration processes during myogenesis. Defects in this gene are associated with congenital myopathy.
