| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables glycosphingolipid binding activity. An extracellular matrix structural constituent. Involved in protein phosphorylation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including morphogenesis of an epithelium; neuron projection development; and retinal blood vessel morphogenesis. Located in basement membrane and cell-cell junction. Part of laminin-1 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early conceptus; eye; genitourinary system; and nervous system. Orthologous to human LAMA1 (laminin subunit alpha 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice display embryonic lethality before somite formation with impaired formation of Reichert's membrane. [provided by MGI curators] |
