Integrin alpha-IIb is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITGA2B gene.

ITGA2B encodes integrin alpha chain 2b. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. Alpha chain 2b undergoes post-translational cleavage to yield disulfide-linked light and heavy chains that join with beta 3 to form a fibronectin receptor expressed in platelets that plays a crucial role in coagulation. Mutations that interfere with this role result in thrombasthenia. In addition to adhesion, integrins are known to participate in cell-surface mediated signalling.^[1]

[edit] Interactions

ITGA2B has been shown to interact with AUP1^[2] and CLNS1A.^[3]
