Integrins are transmembrane alpha beta glycoproteins that connect the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton. The laminin-binding integrin alpha 3 beta 1 is expressed at high levels in lung epithelium and in kidney podocytes. In podocytes, alpha 3 beta 1 associates with the tetraspanin CD151 to maintain a functional filtration barrier. Here, we r...
