Protein name Integrin alpha-4 (CD49 antigen-like family member D) (Integrin alpha-IV) (VLA-4 subunit alpha) (CD antigen CD49d)
Protein function Integrins alpha-4/beta-1 (VLA-4) and alpha-4/beta-7 are receptors for fibronectin. They recognize one or more domains within the alternatively spliced CS-1 and CS-5 regions of fibronectin. They are also receptors for VCAM1. Integrin alpha-4/beta
