Receptors, Fibronectin

Fibronektinreceptorer

Svensk definition

Specifika cellytereceptorer som binder till fibronektiner. Receptorerna har vissa adhesionsfunktioner och spelar en väsentlig roll vid matrisuppbyggnad. Till dessa receptorer hör, förutom den traditionella fibronektinreceptorn - även kallad integrin alfa5beta1, flera andra integriner.

Engelsk definition

Specific cell surface receptors which bind to FIBRONECTINS. Studies have shown that these receptors function in certain types of adhesive contact as well as playing a major role in matrix assembly. These receptors include the traditional fibronectin receptor, also called INTEGRIN ALPHA5BETA1 and several other integrins.
