Integrin beta, epidermal growth factor-like domain 1
InterPro entry
Short name | I-EGF_1 |
Description
This is the I-EGF domain 1 found in several integrin beta subunits. Structural analysis revealed the presence of four integrin epidermal growth factor-like (I-EGF) domains in integrin beta
[2]. EGF1 lacks one disulfide (C2-C4) relative to the integrin EGF 2, 3, and 4 domains; this allows the C-terminal end of EGF1 to flex remarkably relative to its N-terminal end
[1].
