A role for dystroglycan in basement membrane assembly.

Cell - 11 Dec 1998

Henry M D, Campbell K P

Abstract excerpt

Basement membranes are composed of ordered arrays of characteristic extracellular matrix proteins, but little is known about the assembly of these structures in vivo. We have investigated the function of dystroglycan, a cell-surface laminin receptor expressed by cells contacting basement membranes in developing and adult tissues. We find that dystroglycan is required for the formation of a basement membrane in...
