Laminin S Proteins and Enzymes

Laminins are heterotrimeric, noncollagenous glycoproteins composed of combinations of five known alpha, four beta and three gamma chains in mammals. One alpha, beta and gamma subunit self-assembles to form at least 15 coiled-coil heterotrimers. Through specific interactions with integrins, dystroglycan, and other receptors, laminins contribute to c...
