8.A.25.1.8
Fermitin-1, Fermt1 (or Kindlerin or Kindlin (KIND or URP1), of 677 aas with one N-terminal TMS + two possible TMSs within the first 120 aas, and another possible TMS at the C-terminus. It is involved in cell adhesion and contributes to integrin activation. When coexpressed with talin (see 8.A.25.1.6/7), it potentiates activation of ITGA2B and is required for normal keratinocyte proliferation. It is required for normal polarization of basal keratinocytes in skin and for normal cell shape. It is required for normal adhesion of keratinocytes to fibronectin and laminin, and for normal keratinocyte migration to wound sites. It may also mediate TGF-beta 1 signaling in tumor progression (Kloeker et al. 2004). Talin and kindlin cooperate to control the density of integrin clusters (Pernier et al. 2023).
