Laminin G domain
<P>
Description
<P>
A homology domain first described in the long arm globular domain of laminin . Similar sequences also occurs in a large number 
of extracellular proteins. A general function of laminin-G repeats is not known, but in laminin it seems to bind to heparin. 
The structure of the laminin-G domain has been predicted to resemble that of <A HREF='http://ca.expasy.org/uniprot/Q15818'>pentraxin</A>.
