Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionlam-3 encodes one of two C. elegans a laminin A subunits and is orthologous to human laminin alpha2; LAM-3 is a basement membrane component required for normal tissue development, including pharyngeal development; lam-3 is expressed in the pharynx and hypodermis, and also weakly in the intestine.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00006014

Automated_descriptionPredicted to be involved in animal organ morphogenesis and tissue development. Located in basement membrane. Expressed in several structures, including excretory canal; pharyngeal-intestinal valve; pharynx; somatic nervous system; and spermatheca. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy; congenital merosin-deficient muscular dystrophy 1A; and myopia. Is an ortholog of human LAMA1 (laminin subunit alpha 1) and LAMA2 (laminin subunit alpha 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (18)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
