in·te·grin I5193350 (ĭn′tə-grĭn)n. Any of a group of transmembrane proteins that bind to certain molecules in the extracellular matrix or on the surface of other cells. They are involved in cell adhesion and motility and in the transmission of signals across the plasma membrane.integrin (ɪnˈtɛɡrɪn) na protein that acts as a signal receptor between cellsintegrin
integrin[in′teg·rən] (cell molecular) A heterodimeric transmembrane receptor protein of animal cells that binds to components of the extracellular matrix on the outside of a cell and to the cytoskeleton on the inside of the cell, functionally connecting the cell interior to its exterior; in blood cells, integrins are also involved in cell-cell adhesion. integrin
