Integrins function as transmembrane linkers (integrators) between the extracellular matrix and the actin cytoskeleton.
#Id: 1421
#Id: 1422
Fibronectin binds to integrin through an RGD motif.
#Id: 1423
The binding of integrins to their ligands depends on extracellular divalent cations(Ca+2 & Mg+2).
#Id: 1424
The α subunit of each integrin is the primary determinant of its extracellular ligand specificity.
