We have shown that Mg/EGTA (5 mM Mg(2+) and 1.5 mM EGTA) could effectively promote the adhesion of integrin αLβ2 to its ligand ICAM-1 but could not promote that of the αMβ2 to denatured BSA. In order to determine the structural differences between αL and αM that specifically contribute to Mg/EGTA se...
