Preparation and Storage

Background: Integrin alpha 2b/CD41

Integrin alpha 2b (ITGA2b), also known as CD41 and GPIIb, is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed by megakaryocytes and platelets. It is cleaved into two disulfide-linked chains (114 kDa and 22 kDa) during transit through the Golgi. Integrin alpha 2b associates with Integrin beta 3 to form complexes that interact with Fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor, Fibronectin, and Vitronectin. Integrin alpha 2b is required for platelet aggregation, and defects lead to disorders of coagulation. Within the extracellular domain, human Integrin alpha 2b shares 80% and 78% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat Integrin alpha 2b, respectively.
