Background: Laminin is a large basement membrane glycoprotein composed of three subunits designated the A, B1, and B2.1 Laminin has diverse biological functions, which include stimulating epithelial cell growth and differentiation.2 The nucleotide sequence of human laminin A chain has an open reading frame encoding 3075-amino acids.1 The human laminin A chain is at locus 18p11.3.3 The nucleotide sequence of the human laminin B1 reveals a 5358-base pair open reading frame that potentially codes for 1786 amino acids, including 20 amino acids of a presumptive signal peptide.2 The gene for the human laminin-B1 chain has been localized to chromosome 7, band q31.4 The B2 chain consists of six distinct domains, including two domains with alpha-helical, coiled-coil structures, two domains with cysteine-rich homologous repeats, and two globular domains. The amino acid sequences of the B2 and B1 chains demonstrate considerable homology.5 The human laminin B2 chain gene maps to the long arm of chromosome 1 in the band q31.6 The standard product used in this kit is isolated from plasma.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Laminins are basement membrane components thought to mediate the attachment, migration and organization of cells into tissues during embryonic development by interacting with other extracellular matrix components. The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha-3 subunit of laminin 5, which is a complex glycoprotein composed of three subunits (alpha, beta, and gamma). Laminin 5 is thought to be involved in cell adhesion, signal transduction and differentiation of keratinocytes. Mutations in this gene have been identified as the cause of Herlitz type junctional epidermolysis bullosa. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
LAMA3: 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. Defects in LAMA3 are a cause of epidermolysis bullosa junctional Herlitz type (H-JEB); also known as junctional epidermolysis bullosa Herlitz-Pearson type. JEB defines a group of blistering skin diseases characterized by tissue separation which occurs within the dermo-epidermal basement membrane. H-JEB is a severe, infantile and lethal form. Death occurs usually within the first six months of life. Occasionally, children survive to teens. H-JEB is marked by bullous lesions at birth and extensive denudation of skin and mucous membranes that may be hemorrhagic. Defects in LAMA3 are the cause of laryngoonychocutaneous syndrome (LOCS). LOCS is an autosomal recessive epithelial disorder confined to the Punjabi Muslim population. The condition is characterized by cutaneous erosions, nail dystrophy and exuberant vascular granulation tissue in certain epithelia, especially conjunctiva and larynx. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human LAMA1 lama3 (Catalog #AAA175954) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA175954 ELISA Kit recognizes Human LAMA1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Laminin, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
