Abstract excerpt
To investigate the role of the potential phosphorylation sites in the cytoplasmic domain of integrin beta1A, point mutated variants of the protein were stably expressed in the beta1-deficient cell line GD25. Mutants T777A, Y783F, S785A, and Y795F were fully active in promoting cell adhesion, de novo formation of focal contacts, formation of fibronectin fibrils, and activation of focal adhesion kinase. Thus,...
