    Summary
    Predicted to enable heparin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including axon guidance; positive regulation of cell migration; and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in cell cortex; extracellular space; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Part of laminin-2 complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in junctional epidermolysis bullosa and lung small cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human LAMC2 (laminin subunit gamma 2).

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
