Preparation and Storage

Background: Laminin alpha 1

Laminin subunit alpha 1 (LAMA1) is a secreted 400 kDa extracellular matrix glycoprotein that contributes to the formation of basement membrane Laminin isoforms 1 and 3. It is one of three subunits ( alpha, beta, and gamma ) that interact via their coiled-coil domains to form the approximately 800 kDa cruciform, disulfide-linked, Laminin heterotrimer. The 3058 amino acid (aa) residue mature human alpha 1 chain contains an N-terminal Laminin VI domain (aa 18‑269), followed by domains V through III containing 17 EGF-like repeats, the coiled-coil domains II and I, and five globular, Laminin G-like domains. Over aa 22‑269, human Laminin alpha 1 shares 95% and 91% aa sequence identity with canine and mouse alpha 1 chain, respectively.
