Identification and isolation of a 140 kd cell surface glycoprotein with properties expected of a fibronectin receptor
TLDR
Affinity chromatography on wheat germ agglutinin-Sepharose showed that the 140 kd protein is a glycoprotein and, in combination with the fibronectin fragment chromatography, gave highly enriched preparations of the 140Kd protein.About:

New perspectives in cell adhesion : RGD and integrins
TL;DR: Together, the adhesion proteins and their receptors constitute a versatile recognition system providing cells with anchorage, traction for migration, and signals for polarity, position, differentiation, and possibly growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrins: a family of cell surface receptors.
TL;DR: This brief review of sequence data from embryogenesis, thrombosis, and lymphocyte help and killing is summarized and attempts to clarify the relationships among the members of this family of cell surface receptors.

Tumors: wounds that do not heal. Similarities between tumor stroma generation and wound healing.
TL;DR: Tumors of epithelioma are composed of two discrete but interdependent compartments: the malignant cells themselves and the stroma that they induce and in which they are dispersed.
Journal ArticleDOI
RGD and other recognition sequences for integrins.
TL;DR: As the integrin-mediated cell attachment influences and regulates cell migration, growth, differentiation, and apoptosis, the RGD peptides and mimics can be used to probe integrin functions in various biological systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrins in cancer: biological implications and therapeutic opportunities
TL;DR: Clinical developments emphasize the need to identify how integrin antagonists influence the tumour and its microenvironment.

Cleavage of Structural Proteins during the Assembly of the Head of Bacteriophage T4
TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products.

Cleavage of structural proteins during the assemble of the head of bacterio-phage T4
TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell attachment activity of fibronectin can be duplicated by small synthetic fragments of the molecule
TL;DR: The ability of fibronectin to bind cells can be accounted for by the tetrapeptide L-arginyl-glycyl- L-aspartyl-L-serine, a sequence which is part of the cell attachment domain of fibronsectin and present in at least five other proteins.

Laminin--a glycoprotein from basement membranes.

TL;DR: Investigation of a large noncollagenous glycoprotein isolated from a mouse tumor that produces basement membrane shows that it is produced by a variety of cultured cells, suggesting that this protein or an immunologically related protein is a constituent of the basement membranes of these tissues.

Binding of soluble form of fibroblast surface protein, fibronectin, to collagen.
Eva Engvall,Erkki Ruoslahti +1 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest the possibility that Malignantly transformed fibroblasts lack surface fibronectin, which results in a lack of anchorage to the surrounding intercellular matrix, which could contribute to the malignant growth behavior.
