Abstract excerpt
Integrin transmembrane receptors generate multiple signals, but how they mediate specific signaling is not clear. Here we test the hypothesis that particular sequences along the beta(1) integrin cytoplasmic domain may exist that are intimately related to specific integrin-mediated signaling pathways. Using systematic alanine mutagenesis of amino acids conserved between different beta integrin cytoplasmic domains,...
