Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including cell-cell adhesion mediated by integrin; generation of neurons; and nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Located in phagocytic cup. Part of integrin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including ABplaapppp; hermaphrodite gonad; neurons; ventral nerve cord; and vulE. Used to study cancer and epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Duchenne muscular dystrophy; congenital muscular dystrophy due to integrin alpha-7 deficiency; junctional epidermolysis bullosa; junctional epidermolysis bullosa with pyloric atresia; and muscular disease. Orthologous to several human genes including ITGA6 (integrin subunit alpha 6).
WB Description
ina-1 encodes one of two C. elegans alpha integrin subunits; during development, ina-1 activity is required for migration of a number of cell types, including neurons, coelomocyte precursors, and the distal tip cells of the somatic gonad; in addition, ina-1 is required for axon fasciculation and morphogenesis of structures such as the head, pharynx, egg-laying apparatus, and male tail; INA-1 coimmunoprecipitates with the PAT-3 beta integrin subunit suggesting that, in vivo, INA-1 and PAT-3 function as a heterodimer to regulate cell migration and tissue morphogenesis; INA-1 is expressed in many tissues, including neurons, the gonad, and the pharyngeal basement membrane; expression begins during gastrulation and continues through to adulthood.
