Itgb5 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables integrin binding activity. Involved in integrin-mediated signaling pathway; stress fiber assembly; and transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Located in cell leading edge and focal adhesion. Part of integrin alphav-beta5 complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and synaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human ITGB5 (integrin subunit beta 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Itgb5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
