Itga11 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable collagen binding activity involved in cell-matrix adhesion; collagen receptor activity; and integrin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell adhesion mediated by integrin; cell surface receptor signaling pathway; and cell-matrix adhesion. Predicted to act upstream of or within fibroblast migration and substrate-dependent cell migration. Predicted to be located in focal adhesion. Predicted to be part of integrin alpha11-beta1 complex. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human ITGA11 (integrin subunit alpha 11).

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 rat Itga11 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
