Structural basis and kinetics of force-induced conformational changes of an αA domain-containing integrin.

<h4>Background</h4>Integrin α(L)β₂ (lymphocyte function-associated antigen, LFA-1) bears force upon binding to its ligand intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) when a leukocyte adheres to vascular endothelium or an antigen presenting cell (APC) during immune responses. The ligand bi...
