A "splicing switch" provides dual layers of regulation of laminin alpha 3 : implications for wound healing and squamous cell carcinoma
2019-01-01
Abstract excerpt
The laminin α3 gene (LAMA3) generates two major isoforms through alternative promoter usage; LAMA3A and LAMA3B. The ratio between these isoforms has been implicated in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), with an increased LAMA3A:LAMA3B correlating with poor patient survival. Moreover, the proteins produced, laminin α3a and α3b, have been shown to be functionally distinct in terms of their relative abilities to support...
