Clone Host Grade Applications Monoclonal Mouse Affinity Purified E B IP IH IC

Epiligrin, the major component of human keratinocyte extracellular matrix, serves as the preferred integrin ligand for alpha 3 beta 1 in plasma membranes and focal adhesions, and colocalizes with alpha 6 beta 4 in hemidesmosomes. The laminin-5 isoform is abundant in transitional epithelium, stratified squamous epithelia, lung mucosa, and other epithelial glands. Laminin-5 is a heterotrimer consisting of alpha3, beta3, and gamma2 subunits that associate via large helical regions to produce a cruciform-shaped molecule. Laminin-5 is synthesized initially as a 460kD molecule that undergoes specific processing to a smaller form after being secreted into the extracellular matrix. The size reduction is a result of processing the 3 and 2 subunits from 190-200 to 160kD and from 155 to 105kD, respectively.
