Amino Acid Sequence
Arg-Gly-Asp
General description
Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) is an integrin binding site, which belongs to the class of adhesive proteins. It functions as a brain tumor targeting ligand.
Application
Arg-Gly-Asp has been used:
- to saturate the cell surface Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) receptors and inhibit marrow stromal cell (MSC) attachment to peptide modified hydrogel
- in adhesion assay
- in inhibition assay to confirm the β1-integrin-dependency of cell adhesion
- in textile fabrication and RGD textile functionalization
- to engineer a population of human dermal fibroblasts with impaired migration
- to modify glass substrate and evaluate the behavior of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs)
- in the cell culture of human mammary epithelial cells
Biochem/physiol Actions
Primary sequence involved with the binding of proteins to cell surfaces
