Integrins are a group of transmembrane proteins which function as extracellular matrix receptors and in cell adhesion. Integrins are ubiquitously expressed and are heterodimeric, each composed of an alpha and beta subunit. Several variations of the the alpha and beta subunits exist, and association of different alpha and beta subunits can have different a different binding specificity. This domain corresponds to the cytoplasmic domain of the beta subunit.

FERM_f0 forms a stable globular structure. The fold is an ubiquitin-like fold joined to the f1 domain in a novel fixed orientation by an extensive charged interface. It is required for maximal integrin-activation, by interacting with other FA components, No binding partner has yet been found for it [1].
