	'''Integrins''' (IG) are receptors which mediate the attachment between cells or to extracellular matrix. They are involved in cellular signaling and cell cycle. IGs contain alpha and beta chain. IG subunits span the cell membrane. Both subunits bind divalent cations some of which bind the ligands which interact with IG. Some IGs contain an insertion domain named I domain.
