Deletion of Lamb2 and Lamc3 genes affects astrocyte migration and spatial patterning in the retina.
Title: Laminins containing the β2 and γ3 chains regulate astrocyte migration and angiogenesis in the retina.
gamma3-containing laminins are expressed in a wide variety of basement membranes. gamma3 is expressed in CNS but not peripheral vascular basement membranes.
Title: The γ3 chain of laminin is widely but differentially expressed in murine basement membranes: expression and functional studies.
a strong impact of laminin beta2 and gamma3 subunits on the expression and function of both aquaporin-4 and Kir4.1, two important membrane proteins in Muller cells.
Title: Genetic deletion of laminin isoforms β2 and γ3 induces a reduction in Kir4.1 and aquaporin-4 expression and function in the retina.
In human but not mouse fetal brain, LAMC3 is enriched in postmitotic cortical plate neurons, localizing primarily to the somatodendritic compartment.
Title: Recessive LAMC3 mutations cause malformations of occipital cortical development.
netrin-4 is a component of basement membranes and is integrated into the laminin polymer via interactions with the laminin gamma1 andgamma3 short arms
Title: Binding of netrin-4 to laminin short arms regulates basement membrane assembly.
Laminin gamma3 chain, located in murine basement membranes, binds to nidogen
Title: Laminin gamma3 chain binds to nidogen and is located in murine basement membranes.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
