Abstract
We isolated a partial genomic clone encoding ITGAD, a novel beta(2)-in tegrin alpha subunit. The ITGAD gene is highly homologous to the three previously known alpha subunit-encoding genes, that compose the beta( 2) integrin family, in deduced amino acid sequence, intron/exon struct ure and mapping location (chromosome 16p11).
