General description

Laminins are secreted glycoproteins incorporated into cell-associated extracellular matrices and an integral part of the structural scaffolding in most animal tissues. The laminin protein is made up of three polypeptide chains; α, β and γ, accounting for its flexibility in connecting various molecules. When originally characterized, laminin-1 clone AL-2 reacted with Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) mouse laminin A & B chains on the long arm near the cross region, (Skubitz, 1987). More recently, investigations, (Schèele, 2006) have shown that the clone binds laminin β1 under reducing conditions as well as native ELISAs and that the affinity is increased by the presence of the laminin α1 chain. Thus there is significant laminin β1 reactivity with clone AL-2.

We analyzed the reactivity of three different commercially available rat monoclonal antibodies raised against mouse laminin-alpha1beta1gamma1 (laminin-111), AL-1, AL-2, and AL-4. Using ELISA assays, Western blot analysis and immunostainings we present refined epitope maps for these three laminin monoclonals. AL-1
