  • Publication number: 20240117006
    Abstract: Described herein are modified integrin ? and/or ? headpiece polypeptides, and crystallizable integrin polypeptide dimers comprising a modified integrin ? and/or ? headpiece polypeptide and a disulfide bond linking the two integrin headpiece polypeptide subunits. Methods for using the modified integrin ? and/or ? headpiece polypeptides and the integrin polypeptide dimers are also provided herein. For example, methods for characterizing integrin-ligand interaction and identifying integrin ligands are also provided herein. In some embodiments, the identified integrin ligands can be used as inhibitors of integrins.
