Background
Laminins are a family of proteins important for maintaining cellular basement membrane (BM) structure and function (1). Laminins exist as heterotrimers of alpha (LAMA), beta (LAMB), and gamma (LAMC) chains. LAMC1 (laminin gamma-1) is a ubiquitously expressed gamma chain, and has three distinct functional domain structures. The N-terminal LN domain binds to specific alpha and beta chains to form a unique laminin heterotrimer. The LE domain mediates interactions with nidogens, while the C-terminal coil-coil fragment is necessary for agrin association. Collectively, these interactions are critical for stabilization and function of the BM (1). Genetic ablation of LAMC1 has demonstrated a critical role for this protein in embryo implantation, lung and kidney development, and neuronal Schwann cell myelination and regeneration, in addition to Trypanosome infection (2-5). Upregulation of LAMC1 has also been associated with tumor progression in multiple tumor types (6-9), possibly by creating a BM environment that is favorable for cancer cell metastasis and invasion.
