The multiple affinities of α-dystroglycan.

Current protein & peptide science - 1 Nov 2013

Sciandra Francesca, Bozzi Manuela, Bigotti Maria Giulia, Brancaccio Andrea

Abstract excerpt

The dystroglycan (DG) adhesion complex is formed by the peripheral α-DG and the transmembrane β-DG, both originating from the same precursor. α-DG plays a crucial role for tissue stability since it binds with high affinity a variety of proteins and proteoglycans in many different cell types. One common molecular feature of most of the α-DG ligands is the presence of laminin globular (LG) domains that are likely...
