products description :
Principle of the assay: human Laminin ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A polyclonal antibody from rabbit specific for Laminin has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(from human fibroblasts) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from rabbit specific for Laminin is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the human Laminin amount of sample captured in plate. 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 summary :
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 summary :
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. Protein type: Secreted, signal peptide; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Secreted. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 18q11.2. Cellular Component: laminin-5 complex; laminin-1 complex; extracellular region; basement membrane. Molecular Function: structural molecule activity; receptor binding. Biological Process: regulation of cell adhesion; extracellular matrix disassembly; extracellular matrix organization and biogenesis; hemidesmosome assembly; epidermis development; regulation of embryonic development; cell adhesion; regulation of cell migration.
