Query author contributions in Reactome
Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.
If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

| comment | FUNCTION Integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 (ITGA2B:ITGB3) is a receptor for fibronectin, fibrinogen, plasminogen, prothrombin, thrombospondin and vitronectin. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in a wide array of ligands. It recognizes the sequence H-H-L-G-G-G-A-K-Q-A-G-D-V in fibrinogen gamma chain (By similarity). Following activation integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 brings about platelet/platelet interaction through binding of soluble fibrinogen (PubMed:9111081). This step leads to rapid platelet aggregation which physically plugs ruptured endothelial cell surface (By similarity). Integrin ITGA2B:ITGB3 is also the receptor of erythrocyte-specific ICAM4 ligand involved in heterotypic cell-cell adhesion between erythrocytes and activated platelets (PubMed:12477717).SUBUNIT Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. The alpha subunit is composed of a heavy and a light chain linked by a disulfide bond. Alpha-IIb associates with beta-3. Directly interacts with RNF181. Interacts (via C-terminus cytoplasmic tail region) with CIB1; the interaction is direct and calcium-dependent. Interacts (via C-terminus cytoplasmic tail region) with CIB2, CIB3 and CIB4; the interactions are stabilized/increased in a calcium and magnesium-dependent manner. ITGA2B:ITGB3 interacts with PPIA/CYPA; the interaction is ROS and PPIase activity-dependent and is increased in the presence of thrombin (By similarity). ITGA2B:ITGB3 interacts with SELP (via C-type lectin domain); the interaction mediates cell-cell interaction and adhesion (PubMed:37184585).INTERACTION Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in platelets and megakaryocytes, but not in reticulocytes. Not detected in Jurkat, nor in U937 cell lines (PubMed:2351656). Isoform 3 is expressed in prostate adenocarcinoma, as well as in several erythroleukemia, prostate adenocarcinoma and melanoma cell lines, including PC-3, DU-145, HEL, WM983A, WM983B and WM35. Not detected in platelets, nor in normal prostate (at protein level) (PubMed:9809974).PTM Cleaved by ELANE; the cleavage promotes activation of platelet fibrinogen receptor integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3.POLYMORPHISM Genetic variants in ITGA2B define different platelet-specific alloantigen systems that are involved in fetomaternal alloimmune thromobocytopenia. Alloantigen system Bak, also known as HPA-3 or Lek, is characterized by variant p.Ser874Ile (alloantigen Bak(a) or Lek(a) or HPA-3a) and variant p.Ile874Ser (alloantigen Bak(b) or Lek(b) or HPA-3b) (PubMed:2350579, PubMed:7197082, PubMed:14516468, PubMed:15569236). Additional platelet-specific alloantigens involved in fetomaternal alloimmune thromobocytopenia are known (PubMed:7620155, PubMed:19821948, PubMed:23305224).DISEASE Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.DISEASE The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.DISEASE The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.SIMILARITY Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family. |
