❂ Laminins
(basal laminae) (GP)
fibronectin
widely distributed GP
Collagens
most widely distributed protein in the body(GP)
Tf Glycoproteins have covalently-bound carbohydrate.
t Glycoproteins have covalently-bound carbohydrate.
the hydroxyl group ( -OH ) of serine or threonine • the hydroxyl group ( -OH ) of hydroxylysine
called “O-linked” in GP
(only in collagens)
hydroxylysine in GP
the amide group [-NH2] of asparagine -
called “N-linked”.
tf sugar residue Render glycoproteins more hydrophilic
t
sugar residues stabilize against —– and ——- binding to some components
Sugar stabilize against hydrolysis and modulate binding to some components
Linker Proteins
Fibronectins
Interlink collagens, proteoglycans with cell surface receptors
Fibronectins
Fibronectin
Enable cells to interact with the extracellular matrix

5%
2 peptides connected in V like shape
Fibronectin
fibronectin —> 2 x 250 kDa chains linked by disulfide bond near the C-terminus.
2 x —– kDa chains linked by disulfide bond near the — -terminus.
Fibronectin
specialized domains for binding cell surface receptors and the extracellular matrix
links the outer components of the cell to the cell itself.
Fibronectin
RGD or RGDS
cell surface receptor-binding domain
disulfide bonds connect fibronectin at
C terminal
on the fibronectin structure which binding domain is most near N terminal
Heparin and Fibrin binding domain
binding domain next to cell surface receptor bidning domain and near N terminal
fibrin binding domain
fibrin heparin binding domain
most near c terminal of fibronectin (N to C)
cell surface receptor binding domain
contains RGD or RGDS
Laminin
linker proteins
Enable epithelial cells to interact with the extracellular matrix
Laminin
Laminin
high affinity for Type IV collagen
diff ,adhesion
Laminin
Embryonic nerve axonal outgrowth
Nerve regeneration after injury
laminin
Laminin in OC
contributing to terminal differentiation of ameloblasts and
in enamel matrix formation.
may also contribute to the growth of ameloblastomas

Laminin
Laminin
Specialized domains bind cell surface receptors and the extracellular matrix i.e.
links outer components of the cell to the cell surface.
