Regulated activation of integrins is critical for cell adhesion, motility and tissue homeostasis. Talin and kindlins activate beta 1-integrins, but the counteracting inhibiting mechanisms are poorly defined. We identified SHARPIN as an important inactivator of beta 1-integrins in an RNAi screen. SHARPIN inhibited beta 1-integrin functions in human cancer cells and primary leukocytes. Fibroblasts, leukocytes and keratinocytes from SHARPIN-deficient mice exhibited increased beta 1-integrin activity, which was fully rescued by re-expression of SHARPIN. We found that SHARPIN directly binds to a conserved cytoplasmic region of integrin alpha-subunits and inhibits recruitment of talin and kindlin to the integrin. Therefore, SHARPIN inhibits the critical switching of beta 1-integrins from inactive to active conformations.
