Synopsis

This work provides detailed knowledge about the molecular features of the laminins and describes the structure-function relationships and interactions that define their biologically active domains. Many of the discoveries concerning the tissue-specific laminins and the role of different laminins are addressed. By covering topics such as gene coding for laminins, genetic diseases affecting laminins, evolutionary aspects, embryonic development, apoptosis, neurite outgrowth and cancer, this study provides a basis for understanding the role of laminins in development and disease.
