Abstract excerpt
The fibronectin (FN)-binding integrins alpha4beta1 and alpha5beta1 confer different cell adhesive properties, particularly with respect to focal adhesion formation and migration. After analyses of alpha4+/alpha5+ A375-SM melanoma cell adhesion to fragments of FN that interact selectively with alpha4beta1 and alpha5beta1, we now report two differences in the signals transduced by each receptor that underpin their...
