In those integrins that contain it, the I domain is a major ligand recognition site. The I domain
is inserted between β-sheets 2 and 3 of the predicted β-propeller domain of the integrin α
subunit. We deleted the I domain from the integrin α M and α L subunits to give I-less Mac-1
and lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), respectively. The I-less α M and α L
subunits were expressed in association with the wild-type β 2 subunit on the surface of
transfected cells and bound to all the monoclonal antibodies mapped to the putative β …
