背景
LAMC2 (Laminin subunit gamma-2) is a protein that is a critical component of the extracellular matrix, specifically as part of the laminin family of glycoproteins. It forms a heterotrimeric structure by combining with alpha and beta subunits to create laminin-5, which plays a vital role in cell adhesion, migration, and tissue organization. LAMC2 is predominantly expressed in epithelial cells, where it helps maintain the integrity of the basement membrane, which serves as a scaffold for tissue architecture. It is crucial for processes such as wound healing and tissue repair. Mutations in LAMC2 have been associated with various disorders, including epidermolysis bullosa, a skin condition characterized by fragile skin. Due to its involvement in maintaining cellular and tissue structure, LAMC2 is of significant interest in developmental biology and disease research.
