Background

Laminin subunit alpha-2 (LAMA-2) is an extracellular matrix protein that is a main component of the basement membrane. It is thought to mediate the attachment, migration and organization of cells during embryonic development via interacting with other components with the extracellular matrix. It is widely expressed except in the liver, thymus and bone.
