Gene information for ITGA4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3676
Official gene symbolITGA4
Full nameintegrin, alpha 4 (antigen CD49D, alpha 4 subunit of VLA-4 receptor)
Aliases,CD49D,IA4,MGC90518,
Gene summaryThe product of this gene belongs to the integrin alpha chain family of proteins. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. This gene encodes an alpha 4 chain. Unlike other integrin alpha chains, alpha 4 neither contains an I-domain, nor undergoes disulfide-linked cleavage. Alpha 4 chain associates with either beta 1 chain or beta 7 chain. [provided by RefSeq]
