Abstract excerpt
Laminin-111 (alpha1beta1gamma1) is the major component of the embryonic and extra-embryonic basement membrane. The laminin alpha1 chain shows a restricted and developmentally regulated expression in basement membranes of distinct epithelial tissues while beta1 and gamma1 chains have a wide tissue distribution. To understand how human laminin alpha1 chain expression is controlled, we cloned and characterized the...
