[5][6] Integrin, beta 5 has been shown to interact with PTK2,[7] Annexin A5[8] and PAK4.
[9] ITGB5 encodes a subunit of integrin that can interact with several alpha chains to form a variety of integrin heterodimers.
It also plays a potential role in intercellular communication during tumor progression and metastasis.
[10] Elevated levels of ITGB5 have been found in patients with autosomal dominant osteopetrosis type II, a rare disease of bones.
