The present invention relates to a method for cell adhesion and wound
healing with internal domains of .beta.ig-h3. Particularly, the present
invention relates to the method of using recombinant proteins comprising
one or more of 2.sup.nd or 4.sup.th internal domain of .beta.ig-h3 for
cell adhesion and wound healing, wherein the 2.sup.nd or 4.sup.th
internal domain of .beta.ig-h3 has aspartic acid and isoleucine essential
for interaction with integrin which represent a high homology in base
sequence of .beta.ig-h3 internal domains. The recombinant proteins
comprising one or more 2.sup.nd or 4.sup.th internal domain of
.beta.ig-h3 are effective for cell adhesion and wound healing by itself
and can be used for developing cell culture medium and wound healing
agent.
