| Description | Integrin alpha2beta1 is one of twelve integrin family adhesion receptors that share the beta1 subunit (13). It is the noncovalent heterodimer of 160kD alpha2 (CD49b) and 130kD beta1 (CD29) type I transmembrane glycoprotein subunits. It is one of six very late antigens on activated T cells, designated VLA2 (3). The alpha2 extracellular domain (ECD) contains an I (inserted) domain which includes the ligand binding site (2, 3). The beta1 ECD contains a vWFA domain, which participates in binding. Each subunit then has a transmembrane sequence and a short cytoplasmic tail. The dimer is folded when it is least active. Divalent cations and intracellular (insideout) signaling convert it to its most active, extended and open conformation (1, 2). The 1103 amino acid (aa) mouse alpha2 extracellular domain (ECD) shares 93% aa sequence identity with rat and 8081% with human, canine, bovine and equine alpha2, while the 708 aa mouse beta1 ECD shares 98% aa identity with rat and 9394% with human, bovine, porcine, ovine, canine and feline beta1. The I domaincontaining beta1 integrins (alpha1beta1, alpha2beta1, alpha10beta1 and alpha11beta1) all bind collagens, with alpha2beta1 preferring collagens IIII (4, 5). Platelet alpha2beta1, also called GPIa, cooperates with another adhesion protein, GPVI, to coordinate platelet collagen binding and activation (3, 6, 7). Other alpha2beta1 ligands include laminin, decorin, Ecadherin, and collagenlike regions of collectin molecules such as C1q (4). Adhesion is synergized by crosstalk with syndecan1 or HGF R/cMet, and antagonized by crosstalk with integrin alpha1beta1 (810). In addition to expression on selected hematopoietic cells, alpha2beta1 is present on a wide variety of nonhematopoietic cells (4). Mice deficient in the alpha2 subunit have defects in innate immune responses, wound mast cell infiltration and angiogenesis, and platelet responses to collagen (6, 11, 12). In innate immunity, alpha2beta1 binding to C1q initiates the complement cascade and costimulates mast cell activation, triggering neutrophil influx (4, 12).
