|
Function |
Binding to cells via a high affinity receptor, laminin is thought to mediate the attachment, migration and organization of cells into tissues during embryonic development by interacting with other extracellular matrix components.
|
Subcellular Location |
Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix, basement membrane. Note=Major component.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Skin; respiratory, urinary, and digestive epithelia and in other specialized tissues with prominent secretory or protective functions. Epithelial basement membrane, and epithelial cell tongue that migrates into a wound bed. A differential and focal expression of the subunit alpha-3 is observed in the CNS.

Top Pathways |
Focal adhesion, ECM-receptor interaction, Small cell lung cancer, Amoebiasis, Toxoplasmosis
