Abstract excerpt
The ligand binding affinities of the integrins are regulated through their cytoplasmic domains. To identify specific residues that are involved in this process, we have generated mutants in the beta 1 and beta 3 tails and coexpressed them in Chinese hamster ovary cells with constitutively active alpha subunits. These alpha subunits are chimera of extra-cellular and transmembrane alpha IIb joined to the...
