Background

Laminin and nidogen (entactin) are major glycoprotein components of basement membranes. At least seven different isoforms of laminin have been identified. Laminin and nidogen form high affinity complexes in basement membranes by specific binding between the laminin gamma 1 chain and the G3 globule of nidogen.
