Integrin α1 has a long helix, extending from the transmembrane region to the cytoplasmic tail in detergent micelles.

Integrin proteins are very important adhesion receptors that mediate cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions. They play essential roles in cell signaling and the regulation of cellular shape, motility, and the cell cycle. Here, the transmembrane and cytoplasmic (TMC) domains of integrin...
