Nidogen/entactin

Four ECM proteins are found in all basal laminae (see Figure 6-13) type IV collagen, laminin (a multiadhesive matrix protein), entactin (nidogen), and perlecan (a proteoglycan). [Pg.215]

Laminin [consisting of three polypeptide chains, A, Bl (possibly replaced in GBM by S) and B2] is the most important noncollagenous protein of the glomerular basement membrane. Laminin forms a second network, which is connected to the collagen IV network probably via another protein called entactin or nidogen. Laminin is probably very important for cellular differentiation and adhesion, but its mesh clearly also contributes to the structure of the glomerular basement membrane. The postnatally common embryonic laminin-10 isoform is... [Pg.176]

A ubiquitous laminin-associated glycoprotein is entactin (also known as nidogen), a glycoprotein now thought to provide linkage between laminin and type IV collagen in basement membranes. [Pg.644]
