Overview
Integrin alpha 4 / beta 7 (CD49d / Ly69) , also known as LPAM-1 (Llmphocyte Peyer´s patch adhesion molecule 1), is a heterodimeric (150 kDa / 130 kDa) integrin complex which mediates lymphocyte homing to Peyer´s patch high endothelial venules and to the intestinal lamina propria. It is expressed primarily on mucosal lymphocytes, but is also present on NK cells and eosinophils. Ligands of LPAM-1 are MAdCAM-1, VCAM-1, and fibronectin, but the alpha 4 subunit (CD49d) can mediate also homotypic adhesion.
Specificity:
The rat monoclonal antibody DATK32 recognizes an extracellular epitope of integrin alpha 4 (CD49d) and integrin beta7 (Ly69) components of mouse LPAM-1 complex, which is expressed on the majority of peripheral lymphocytes, as well as on subsets of thymocytes and bone marrow cells.
