Description 81-85
α1β1-Integrin is a
common receptor for laminin and collagen IV on hepatocytes. The interactions of
intracellular domain of integrins with cytoplasmic elements are critical in the
initiation and transduction of signals. In order to understand the nature of cytoplasmic
components that can interact with cytoplasmic domain of α1 integrin,
cytoplasmic extracts of mono layers of rat hepatocytes were subjected to chromatography
over an affinity column prepared by coupling a 60-mer synthetic cytoplasmic tai
l of α1 subunit. SDS-PAGE analysis of the eluate showed the presence
of a 47 kDa protein. Dot-Blot assay using radio- iodinated 47 kDa protein showed
the binding of the protein to 60-mer C tail in a concentration dependent manner.
Immunoblot analysis using specific antibodies showed that the 47 kDa protein is
actin.
