a component of the basal lamina; may be involved in motor neuron function [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
LAMB2: 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 LAMB2 are the cause of Pierson syndrome (PIERSS); also known as microcoria-congenital nephrotic syndrome. Pierson syndrome is characterized by nephrotic syndrome with neonatal onset, diffuse mesangial sclerosis and eye abnormalities with microcoria as the leading clinical feature. Death usually occurs within the first weeks of life. Disease severity depends on the mutation type: nontruncating LAMB2 mutations may display variable phenotypes ranging from a milder variant of Pierson syndrome to isolated congenital nephrotic syndrome. Defects in LAMB2 are the cause of nephrotic syndrome type 5 with or without ocular abnormalities (NPHS5). NPHS5 is a renal disease characterized clinically by proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia and edema. Kidney biopsies show non-specific histologic changes such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and diffuse mesangial proliferation. Some affected individuals have an inherited steroid-resistant form and progress to end-stage renal failure. NPHS5 is characterized by very early onset of progressive renal failure. A subset of patients may develop mild ocular anomalies, such as myopia, nystagmus, and strabismus.

Product Notes
The Rat Lamb2 lamb2 (Catalog #AAA2886460) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2886460 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat Lamb2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Laminin subunit beta-2, 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
