PEPTIDES AND ANTIBODIES THAT INHIBIT INTEGRIN-LIGAND BINDING

摘要

Polypeptides which are derived from the ligand-binding portion of an Integrin alpha subunit are disclosed as are their use for modulation of Integrin ligand binding. Anti-peptide antibodies, hybridomas secreting these antibodies, as well as methods of making and using such antibodies, and recombinant DNA molecules that define the structural gene coding for the polypeptides are also contemplated as within the scope of the present invention.
