Integrin beta 4, also known as CD104, is a 200kD type I transmembrane (TM) glycoprotein that associates only with Integrin alpha 6/CD29. Integrin alpha 6 beta 4 is predominantly expressed by epithelial cells, binds laminins, and is essential for formation of hemidesmosomes and connection of the dermis to the epidermis. Mouse integrin beta 4 contains a 680 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD) with a metal-binding site and four cysteine-rich repeats, a 22aa TM segment and an unusually long 1073aa cytoplasmic tail that organizes hemidesmosome components. Isoforms with shortened cytoplasmic tails have been described. Mouse and human beta 4 ECD show 88% aa identity. Applications: Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, Western Blot, Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000-2000 Immunohistochemistry(Frozen): 1:100-200 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
