ITGA2 encodes the alpha subunit of a transmembrane receptor for collagens and related proteins. The integrin subunit alpha 2 forms a heterodimer with a beta subunit and mediates the adhesion of platelets and other cell types to the extracellular matrix. Loss of the encoded protein is associated with bleeding disorder platelet-type 9. Antibodies against this protein are found in several immune disorders, including neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. This gene is located adjacent to a related alpha subunit gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.蛋白别名为：ITGA2; CD49B; Integrin alpha-2; CD49 antigen-like family member B; Collagen receptor; Platelet membrane glycoprotein Ia; GPIa; VLA-2 subunit alpha; CD49b;基因ID为：3673；蛋白质ID:P17301
应用类型
WB，IHC-p，ELISA补充：最优的抗体稀释比例需要基于客户实验进行优化.建议的起始稀释比例如下: WB: 1:500-1:2000, IHC-p: 1:100-1:300, ELISA: 1:10000. Not yet tested in other applications.
