Amino Acid Sequence

Arg-Gly-Glu-Ser

Application

Arg-Gly-Glu-Ser acetate salt has been used:
  • as an integrin blocking peptide to study its effects on ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) regulation in astroglioma cells
  • as a control peptide to study its effects on the binding of patient IgG to integrin αvβ6
  • as an integrin inhibitor peptide to study its effects on cell adhesion in Capsaspora owczarzaki cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

Arg-Gly-Glu-Ser peptide acts as an integrin-blocking peptide.

Synthetic peptides containing the RGD sequence inhibit integrin-related functions in different cell systems. Here, we investigated the effects of synthetic Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (RGDS) peptide on key inflammatory responses to intratracheal (i.t.) lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment and on the integrin signaled mitogen-activated protein

In animals, cell-matrix adhesions are essential for cell migration, tissue organization, and differentiation, which have central roles in embryonic development [1-6]. Integrins are the major cell surface adhesion receptors mediating cell-matrix adhesion in animals. They are heterodimeric transmembrane proteins that
