| Function | Integrin alpha-6/beta-1 (ITGA6:ITGB1) is a receptor for laminin on platelets (By similarity). Integrin alpha-6/beta-1 (ITGA6:ITGB1) is present in oocytes and is involved in sperm-egg fusion (By similarity). Integrin alpha-6/beta-4 (ITGA6:ITGB4) is a receptor for laminin in epithelial cells and it plays a critical structural role in the hemidesmosome (By similarity). ITGA6:ITGB4 binds to NRG1 (via EGF domain) and this binding is essential for NRG1-ERBB signaling. ITGA6:ITGB4 binds to IGF1 and this binding is essential for IGF1 signaling. ITGA6:ITGB4 binds to IGF2 and this binding is essential for IGF2 signaling. |
| Cellular Localization | Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor. |
| Post-transcriptional Modifications | Isoforms containing segment A, but not segment B, are the major targets for PMA-induced phosphorylation. Phosphorylation occurs on 'Ser-1103' of isoform alpha-6X1X2A. Phosphorylation is not required for the induction of integrin alpha-6A/beta-1 high affinity but may reduce the affinity for ligand. Undergoes PLAU-mediated cleavage at residues Arg-634-635-Arg in a time-dependent manner to produce processed integrin alpha-6 (alpha6p). Production of alpha6p enhances prostate cancer cell invasion and migration. Palmitoylation by DHHC3 enhances stability and cell surface expression. |
| Involvement in Disease | Epidermolysis bullosa, junctional 6, with pyloric atresia (JEB6): A form of epidermolysis bullosa, a genodermatosis characterized by recurrent blistering, fragility of the skin and mucosal epithelia, and erosions caused by minor mechanical trauma. JEB6 is an autosomal recessive form in which blistering lesions occur between the epidermis and the dermis at the lamina lucida level of the basement membrane zone. Clinical manifestations include severe blistering, atrophic scarring, nail dystrophy, and pyloric atresia. Congenital absence of skin (aplasia cutis congenita) is common, and ear anomalies are also relatively common. Disease course is usually severe and often lethal in the neonatal period. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
