| Application: | Anti-LAMA3 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige . |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | LAMA3 (laminin subunit α3) is a subunit of laminin5 protein, which plays an essential role in maintaining skin integrity. It is responsible for the contact between dermis and epidermis, and promotes the adhesion, spreading and migration of human keratinocytes. LAMA3 is linked with susceptibility to atopic dermatitis (AD), which is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder. Rarely found SNP in this gene is shown to have biological interactions characteristic of prion disease or with prion proteins. Studies in population with Punjabi ancestry show that a homozygous nonsense mutation in this gene is linked with laryngo-onycho-cutaneous syndrome, which is an autosomal recessive disorder and a subtype of junctional epidermolysis bullosa. |

| Features and Benefits: | Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments. |
| General description: | LAMA3 (laminin subunit α3), along with LAMB3 (β3) and LAMC2 (γ2), forms a subunit of laminin5 protein. This gene is localized to human chromosome 18q11.2. Its C-terminal contains G-domain, which is a compact globular domain composed of subdomains G1-G5. |
| Immunogen: | Laminin subunit α-3 precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST) |
