The Role of Integrins CONFIDENTIAL A family of cell surface receptors with unique ability to signal bi - directionally Named integrins because they ‘integrate’ extracellular and intracellular stimuli They function as signal transduction platforms, mechano - sensors and adhesion molecules (e.g. leukocyte trafficking) They ‘integrate’ cell – cell and cell – extracellular matrix interactions within organs.

Integrins: Conformation is Key to Function • Integrins shift between an open and closed conformation • Morphic develops small molecules designed to lock “healthy” integrin conformations in place • Previous oral integrin inhibitors locked conformation in a “diseased” active state, leading to clinical failures • This was a key discovery of the Springer Lab that led to the first small molecules targeting conformational change, and the formation of Morphic CONFIDENTIAL 7 Closed Open
