α2β1 Integrin Ligand Peptide TFA interacts with integrin receptors on the cell membrane, mediating extracellular signaling and potentially acting as an antagonist of the collagen receptor.
The Asp-Gly-Glu-Ala (DGEA) amino acid domain of type I collagen interacts with the α2β1 integrin receptor on the cell membrane and mediates extracellular signals into cells. It is a potential antagonist of collagen receptors.
