Laminin, a major structural glycoprotein of the basement membranes, is an attachment and survival factor for epithelial cells and can also promote the growth of epithelial cells. Laminin plays an important role in both the structural organization of basement membranes and in the anchorage of cells. The monoclonal antibody, DG10 and BC17 against laminin chain ß1 and γ1, respectively can be widely applied in immunohistochemical studies as all basement membranes contain laminin trimers containing these chains. Antibodies to laminin chains are useful in basic biology studies as well as in pathological studies concerning, for instance, the integrity of the basement membranes in carcinomas. Clone DG10 against Laminin ß1-chain is apparently one of the few laminin antibodies working perfectly in immunoblotting, thus making it especially valuable for biochemical studies.Synonyms: Laminin B1 chain, Laminin-1 subunit beta, Laminin-10 subunit beta, Laminin-12 subunit beta, Laminin-2 subunit beta, Laminin-6 subunit beta, Laminin-8 subunit beta
