ABSTRACT:
Antibodies against integrins are disclosed, as are methods of making same. Such antibodies are elicited by immunizing with synthetic peptides corresponding to the cytoplasmic domains, or functional portions thereof, of various integrin subunits. Peptides employed for such immunization include known cytoplasmic domain amino acid sequences for integrin subunits, as well as newly discovered cytoplasmic domain amino acid sequences for integrin subunits. The latter amino acid sequences are also disclosed and described herein.
