==Structure==
'''Integrins''' are surface proteins that are comprised of an alpha subunit and a beta subunit to form a functional transmembrane structure. The subunits of the heterodimer each have small cytoplasmic domains for signal transduction within the cell. There are 18 alpha and eight beta subunits in mammals. Different pairs of these alpha and beta subunits uniquely bind to extracellular proteins. Integrins connect the extracellular environment to the inside of a cell by inducing signals that affect cell functions.

The protein structure on the right has the following color coding: Blue-Alpha 5 chain, Red-Beta 1 chain, Grey-SG/19 Fab fragment light chain, Green-SG/19 Fab fragment heavy chain.

==Function==

Integrins are a class of surface proteins that bind to extracellular matrix components and transmit chemical and mechanical cues to internal signaling pathways. Integrin beta 1 binds many proteins when dimerized with an alpha subunit, including <scene name='60/609772/Integrinbeta1_binding_collagen/1'>collagen</scene>, laminin and fibronectin. Integrin adhesion to the extra cellular matrix is key for cell ability to adhere, migrate and proliferate in both 2D and 3D systems. These will eventually form adhesion complexes, which regulate actomyocin polymerization. During migration, cells continually form new focal adhesions at the leading edge of the cell and release adhesion complexes at the back of the cell, enabling forward movement.

==Integrins and cancer==

Integrins binding to the extracellular matrix provide cells the ability to migrate and remodel the surrounding microenvironment. Integrins are extremely important in cancer metastasis and the progression of solid tumors. Cells bind to extracellular matrix proteins, like<scene name='60/609772/Rgd_bound/2'> peptide RGD (black) on fibronectin</scene>, with integrins to stimulate survival, migration/invasion, and proliferation <ref>PMID:20029421</ref>. Though high expression of integrin beta 1 has been shown to drive primary tumor progression and metastasis, targeting integrins for cancer treatment has seen limited clinical efficacy <ref>PMID:22894137</ref>. These failures stem from differential integrin expression between cancer cells, but new technologies to screen cancer cell populations are being developed to affective therapies on a patient-specific level <ref> PMID: 25537447</ref>. These technologies will likely allow for more selective treatment and better clinical efficacy for integrin inhibitors.

==Studying Integrin Beta-1'' in vitro''==

Due to their roles in both disease and cell-matrix interactions, there is a growing interest in studying integrin function ''in vitro''. Common approaches use simple end point gene or protein expression analysis, however, ''in vitro'' studies allow for functional analysis to observe intern binding interactions in single living cells. Tools include siRNA to prevent integrin gene expression, integrin binding peptides (i.e., the RGD peptide) which bind to integrins competitively with ECM proteins)<ref>PMID:7955174</ref>, and function-affecting antibodies which can bind to integrin heterodimers and prevent binding to the ECM<ref>PMID:9105051 </ref>. When beta1 dimerizes with alpha1, it can bind to both collagens I and IV as well as laminins <ref>PMID: 12662928</ref>, which are both large components of the ECM of many tissues. Integrin alpha1 beta1 binding to a function affecting integrin antibody is shown <scene name='60/609777/With_antibody/4'>here.

==Peyton Lab Research Interests==
The [http://www.peytonlab.org/ Peyton lab] studies how cells process chemical and physical cues from the extracellular matrix and how these interactions play a role in the progression of cardiovascular disease and cancer. We aim to understand the downstream signaling pathways activated when cells use their integrins to bind to matrix and how this translates to the disease of interest. We are further interested in how integrins can be biomarkers in disease, because they transduce signals from the diseased microenvironment to cells, likely facilitating disease progression in some cases.

Fall 2014: Complete steps 1-3 before the CBI Molecule Workshop on 11/19; bring your computer to the CBI Molecule Workshop in ISB 321. You will be able to start work on your CBI Molecule at the workshop. You should plan to stay and finish your molecule after the workshop (or as soon as possible) while the instructions and ideas are fresh in your mind.

A successful CBI Molecule is an interesting, nontechnical description of a molecule related to your group's research. It should tell an interesting story with few words and many green scenes. Green scenes should be clear and attractive illustrations that tell your story. It's great if you can end with a brief statement about how it relates to your group's research goals.

1. If you don't already have one, request a Proteopedia account and log in.

2. Read through the rest of the instructions, do the tutorials below, and look at any existing CBI Molecules from your research group. Talk with other CBI students in your research group and decide how you will collaborate to make an improved CBI Molecule related to your group's research. Develop ideas for the scenes that each of you will make.

3. Get started working in Proteopedia. Make yourself a sandbox page: Enter "User:Your Name/Sandbox 1" (omit quotes) in the search box, then follow instructions to edit this page. Practice entering text, inserting a structure window with scrolling text (green 4-square button on the right), and creating a green scene. Explore the HELP links below to learn how to make a green scene. You can look at other Proteopedia pages in edit mode to see how different effects (like colored text) are achieved (but this won't show you how the scene effects are made).

'''Complete the above steps before the CBI Molecule Workshop.'''

4. When editing an existing CBI Molecule, leave the original intact and make a copy that you will edit so that it retains the full author list of all authors that contributed. You are encouraged to collaborate on the CBI Molecules, but everyone will need to log in as themself and create a green scene to get credit for their work and to appear as authors on the final list. If you are the sole student from your group enrolled in Chalk Talk and have not previously made a CBI Molecule, try to convince another group member who has previously made a CBI Molecule (see list above) to join us for the workshop so that you can work together.

5. Your final pages should be called "Molecular Playground/your molecule" and should have links on this CBI Molecule page -- put the new ones first on the list from your research group. Label them "in progress" until you are finished, and then "new 2014" or "revised 2014". Minimize text; tell your story with green scenes!

6. When your CBI Molecule is complete, send Lynmarie an email to nominate a cool scene/clever caption you would like to feature at the Molecular Playground (include a link to your CBI Molecule, name of the green scene, and caption).

CBI Molecules

2014-11-19T17:31:23Z

Lauren Jansen:

These are molecules under study by members of the [http://www.umass.edu/cbi/ University of Massachusetts Amherst Chemistry-Biology Interface Program].
Many of the molecules we study are featured at the [http://www.molecularplayground.org/ Molecular Playground] (see also [[Molecular Playground|Molecular Playground in Proteopedia]]). Follow the links below to read nontechnical descriptions, in Proteopedia, of these molecules.

UMass CBI Members, add your molecules to the list (which is alphabetical by CBI research mentor); follow the instructions below the list.

Fall 2014: CBI Molecules are due 12/3/14 and should be added at the TOP of the list from your lab. Label it as "in progress" until you are finished, and then as "New 2014" or "Revised 2014". For those editing an existing CBI Molecule, start by making a copy of that entry (leaving the original intact) so that it retains the full author list of all authors that contributed (or include credits and a link to the original page and authors if it does not).
Follow the instructions at the bottom of this page.

Lauren Jansen:

These are molecules under study by members of the [http://www.umass.edu/cbi/ University of Massachusetts Amherst Chemistry-Biology Interface Program].
Many of the molecules we study are featured at the [http://www.molecularplayground.org/ Molecular Playground] (see also [[Molecular Playground|Molecular Playground in Proteopedia]]). Follow the links below to read nontechnical descriptions, in Proteopedia, of these molecules.

UMass CBI Members, add your molecules to the list (which is alphabetical by CBI research mentor); follow the instructions below the list.

Fall 2014: CBI Molecules are due 12/3/14 and should be added at the TOP of the list from your lab. Label it as "in progress" until you are finished, and then as "New 2014" or "Revised 2014". For those editing an existing CBI Molecule, start by making a copy of that entry (leaving the original intact) so that it retains the full author list of all authors that contributed (or include credits and a link to the original page and authors if it does not).
Follow the instructions at the bottom of this page.

==Instructions==

'''The goal is for students to work collaboratively to create one excellent CBI Molecule for each CBI research group, to be featured on the CBI website.'''

Fall 2014: Complete steps 1-3 before the CBI Molecule Workshop on 11/19; bring your computer to the CBI Molecule Workshop in ISB 321. You will be able to start work on your CBI Molecule at the workshop. You should plan to stay and finish your molecule after the workshop (or as soon as possible) while the instructions and ideas are fresh in your mind.

A successful CBI Molecule is an interesting, nontechnical description of a molecule related to your group's research. It should tell an interesting story with few words and many green scenes. Green scenes should be clear and attractive illustrations that tell your story. It's great if you can end with a brief statement about how it relates to your group's research goals.

1. If you don't already have one, request a Proteopedia account and log in.

2. Read through the rest of the instructions, do the tutorials below, and look at any existing CBI Molecules from your research group. Talk with other CBI students in your research group and decide how you will collaborate to make an improved CBI Molecule related to your group's research. Develop ideas for the scenes that each of you will make.

3. Get started working in Proteopedia. Make yourself a sandbox page: Enter "User:Your Name/Sandbox 1" (omit quotes) in the search box, then follow instructions to edit this page. Practice entering text, inserting a structure window with scrolling text (green 4-square button on the right), and creating a green scene. Explore the HELP links below to learn how to make a green scene. You can look at other Proteopedia pages in edit mode to see how different effects (like colored text) are achieved (but this won't show you how the scene effects are made).

'''Complete the above steps before the CBI Molecule Workshop.'''

4. When editing an existing CBI Molecule, leave the original intact and make a copy that you will edit so that it retains the full author list of all authors that contributed. You are encouraged to collaborate on the CBI Molecules, but everyone will need to log in as themself and create a green scene to get credit for their work and to appear as authors on the final list. If you are the sole student from your group enrolled in Chalk Talk and have not previously made a CBI Molecule, try to convince another group member who has previously made a CBI Molecule (see list above) to join us for the workshop so that you can work together.

5. Your final pages should be called "Molecular Playground/your molecule" and should have links on this CBI Molecule page -- put the new ones first on the list from your research group. Label them "in progress" until you are finished, and then "new 2014" or "revised 2014". Minimize text; tell your story with green scenes!

6. When your CBI Molecule is complete, send Lynmarie an email to nominate a cool scene/clever caption you would like to feature at the Molecular Playground (include a link to your CBI Molecule, name of the green scene, and caption).

Fall 2013: Complete steps 1-2 by 10/18, and bring your computer to the CBI Molecule Workshop on Wed 10/23 in ISB 321.

A successful CBI Molecule will be an interesting, nontechnical description of a molecule related to your group's research. It should not be super long, but instead have multiple green scenes.

1. If you don't already have one, request a Proteopedia account and log in.

2. Read through the rest of the instructions and look at any existing CBI Molecules from your research group. Talk with other Chalk Talk students in your research group and think about how you can make a new or improved CBI Molecule related to your group's research. Develop ideas for the scenes you wish to show. You will work learn how to make scenes during the workshop.

3. Get started working in Proteopedia by using the links at [[Help:Contents]]. Make yourself a sandbox page: Enter "User:Your Name/Sandbox 1" (omit quotes) in the search box, then follow instructions to edit this page.
