Itgam - integrin alpha M Gene
Also Known as CR3; CR3A; MAC1; Cd11b; Ly-40; Mac-1; Mac-1a; CD11b/CD18; F730045J24Rik
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
Enables complement component C3b binding activity; heparan sulfate proteoglycan binding activity; and heparin binding activity. Contributes to cargo receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including central nervous system development; endocytosis; and positive regulation of neuron death. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including activated T cell proliferation; leukocyte migration; and microglia development. Located in external side of plasma membrane and nucleus. Is integral component of membrane. Part of Integrin alphaM-beta2 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; heart; lymphatic vessel; thymus; and yolk sac. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lupus nephritis. Orthologous to human ITGAM (Integrin subunit alpha M). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
