Laminin α5_CD239_Spectrin is a candidate association that compensates the linkage between the basement membrane and cytoskeleton in skeletal muscle fibers

The linkage between the basement membrane (BM) and cytoskeleton is crucial for muscle fiber stability and signal transduction. Mutations in the linkage molecules can cause various types of muscular dystrophies. The different severities and times of onset suggest that compensatory linkages occur at t...
