Sharpin suppresses β1-integrin activation by complexing with the β1 tail and kindlin-1

Abstract Background Previously sharpin has been identified as an endogenous inhibitor of β1-integrin activation by directly binding to a conserved region in the cytoplasmic tails (CTs) of the integrin β1-associated α subunits. Methods Here we employed biochemical approaches and cellular analyses to...
