Title: | The activation states of LFA-1 (αLβ2) and related integrins | Authors: | Cheng, Ming | Keywords: | DRNTU::Science::Biological sciences::Microbiology::Immunology | Issue Date: | 2008 | Source: | Cheng, M. (2008). The activation states of LFA-1 (αLβ2) and related integrins. Doctoral thesis, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. | Abstract: | Cell adhesion molecules, which are both receptors and ligands for receptors, are typically transmembrane proteins. They are composed of three domains: an intracellular domain that interacts with the cytoskeleton, a transmembrane domain and an extracellular domain that interacts either with other cell adhesion molecules on another cell or the component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) (Joseph-Silverstein and Silverstein, 1998). Their functions include adhesion, recognition and communication between cells and between cells and components of the extracellular matrix. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/38777 | DOI: | 10.32657/10356/38777 | Schools: | School of Biological Sciences | Fulltext Permission: | open | Fulltext Availability: | With Fulltext |
