General structural features that regulate integrin affinity revealed by atypical αVβ8

The activation mechanism of integrin αVβ8 differs from other integrins. Combining X-ray crystallography, hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry and mutation, the authors reveal structural features responsible for these differences and provide insights into how typical integrins are regulated....
