ITGA9

This gene encodes an alpha integrin. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane glycoproteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain that mediate cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion. The protein encoded by this gene, when bound to the beta 1 chain, forms an integrin that is a receptor for VCAM1, cytotactin and osteopontin. Expression of this gene has been found to be upregulated in small cell lung cancers.
Protein class

Human disease related genes

Predicted location

Intracellular, Membrane (different isoforms)

Single cell type specificity

Cell type enhanced (Oligodendrocyte precursor cells, Excitatory neurons, Peritubular cells, Inhibitory neurons, Hepatic stellate cells, Microglial cells, Leydig cells)

Immune cell specificity

Not detected in immune cells

Cell line specificity

Cell line enhanced (CACO-2, HEL, SH-SY5Y, SuSa, WM-115)

Interaction

Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. Alpha-9 (ITGA9) associates with beta-1 (ITGB1). Integrin ITGA9:ITGB1 interacts with FBLN5 (via N-terminus).

Molecular function

Integrin, Receptor
