Lamc1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable glycosphingolipid binding activity. Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including hair follicle cell proliferation; hair follicle morphogenesis; and neuron differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within neuron projection development. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix. Part of laminin-1 complex. Orthologous to human LAMC1 (laminin subunit gamma 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Lamc1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
