About ITGB8

Cytogenetic location: 7p21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:20,329,766-20,415,754 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 203 orthologues and 8 paralogues. Broad expression in kidney (RPKM 12.1), brain (RPKM 11.6) and 19 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the Integrin beta chain family and encodes a single-pass type I membrane protein with a VWFA domain and four cysteine-rich repeats. This protein noncovalently binds to an alpha subunit to form a heterodimeric Integrin complex. In general, Integrin complexes mediate cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions and this complex plays a role in human airway epithelial proliferation. Alternatively spliced variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described; however, not all variants have been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
