An integrin complex that comprises one alpha4 subunit and one beta1 subunit. [PMID:12297042]
The integrin alpha4-beta1 complex is a transmembrane receptor that mediates cell adhesion to extracellular matrix components such as vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and fibronectin. It plays a critical role in various cellular processes, including leukocyte migration, angiogenesis, and tumor metastasis. The cellular component of the integrin alpha4-beta1 complex is composed of two subunits: the alpha4 subunit and the beta1 subunit. Each subunit consists of a large extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. The extracellular domains of both subunits interact with each other to form a heterodimer that binds to its ligands. The cytoplasmic domains of both subunits interact with intracellular proteins, including talin, kindlin, and paxillin, which link the integrin to the actin cytoskeleton. These interactions are essential for integrin-mediated signal transduction and cell migration. The integrin alpha4-beta1 complex is localized to focal adhesions, which are specialized structures that form at the interface between cells and the extracellular matrix. These adhesions provide a mechanical link between the cell and its environment and act as platforms for signal transduction. Integrin alpha4-beta1 complexes are also found in other cellular compartments, such as the cell membrane, the Golgi apparatus, and the endoplasmic reticulum.'
