    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
    basic FUNCTION
  • cell surface adhesion receptor mediating cell-adhesion to extra cellular matrix or to other cells, through hetero dimerization and connecting to the cytoskeleton and various signaling molecules within cells
  • regulates T cell activation and signal transduction through the immunological synapse
  • function of ITGB2 is to enhance TCR signaling through the immunological synapse and deliver distinct signals in CD8+ T cell activation
  • unique role in T cell Ca2+ signaling and ITGB2-dependent Ca2+ entry proceeds via a mechanism separate from store-operated Ca2+ entry
  • ITGB2 signaling is required for the generation of central memory CD8(+) T cells in priming phase
  • plays a key role in regulating neutrophil recruitment, CXCL2 formation and tissue injury in the pancreas
  • mediating T cell migration, essential for immune surveillance and response
  • pivotal role of neutrophil ITGB2 and ROS in this process provides a potential target for modulating immune responses
    • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, cell death/apoptosis
    cell communication
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS immunity/defense , inflammation
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling signal transduction
    a component
  • common constituent of LFA-1, Mac-1 and p150, 95 antigens
  • dimerizing with ITGAL, ITGAM, ITGAX (see symbols)
    • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • ILK, GNB2L1, ITGB1BP, ITGAL, ITGAM, ITGAX
  • SPN interacts with BSG and ITGB2 in two distinct but similarly reorganized complexes
  • interacting with RAP1A (mediates ITGB2 activation and ITGB2-mediated adhesion)
  • interacting with calpain 2, that controls turnover of ITGB2 adhesions on migrating T lymphocytes
  • interaction with CTSZ (cysteine carboxypeptidase, that is involved in the regulation of T cell migration by interaction with ITGB2)
  • FERMT3 is a key lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (ITGB2) coactivator
  • interacting with CYTH1 (regulates adhesion and the transendothelial migration of monocytes, dendritic cells and T lymphocytes through activation of ITGB2)
  • interacting with ANGPT2 (is a novel, endothelial-derived regulator of myeloid cell infiltration that modulates ITGB2-mediated adhesion in a paracrine manner)
  • interacting with TIAM1 (TCR-induced activation of ITGB2 involves signaling through TIAM1)
  • FERMT3 is enriched within focal clusters of high-affinity ITGB2, which promoted physical linkage with ORAI1
    • cell & other
  • unstimulated and activated endothelial cells
    • REGULATION
    Other CTSZ cleavage of ITGB2 regulates talin-binding and ITGB2 affinity in T cells
    regulation of ITGB2 activity allows dendritic cells to actively control antigen-driven T-cell proliferation and effective immune responses
