What is our body tissues made of?
laminin
Which functional groups are present on laminin?
Basal Lamina and glycoproteins are two of the functional groups that are present in laminin. Laminin is an active and biologically important part to both groups.
Where is the word laminin found in the Bible?
the word - laminin - does not appear in the King James version of the Bible, nor in any English language version of the Bible
You want to see pictures of laminin molcules?
yes
What is laminin?
Laminin is a Glycoprotein (Oligosaccharide-Protein) which acts as a binding agent between cell walls. They have been dubbed as the "babysitters" of the cells. Laminin influence the cells' differentiation, movement, adhesion, and cell life. Certain muscular dystrophy have been linked to malfunctions in the laminin (Laminin 211 for all you students of chemistry). This is what Laminin looks like: .........................O....................... .........................O....................... ................................................ ............OO===|.|.|===OO......... ........................\|/....................... ................................................ ................................................ ................................................ .........................O....................... As you can see laminin look much like crosses. The three sections which combine are composed of a Beta chain, Alpha chain, and Gamma chain (respectively). Each chain has a double OO shaped Collogen IV base which acts as a "hand" grabbing onto a cellular wall. The three chains coil around each other and end at the bottom Herapan Sulfate Binding Domain (the bottom O).
Where is a diagram of a laminin molecule?

What is the cross shaped thing in your body?
Laminin protein work together with other proteins, laminin glyoprotein assist in creating structural building blocks for membranes in every human tissue and some animals. They are the glue (connective tissue) inside of us that holds, uniting force, a tie, one cell, to another cell creating a bond. They are the cheer leaders to promote cell adhesion. If we did not have them in our body we would fall apart.
How does a lack of laminin disrupt the skin's structure?
just shut up
What does the laminin cell look like?
It looks like a cross of sorts..
Is a laminin cell hereditary?
Laminin is inside everyone. The main proteine and active part in the body of the membrane that holds you together. If it breaks, you will stop living. Just as in the bible it says God holds us all together inside which is proof and since this molecule is shaped as a cross it is more proof. There's a lot that is said in the bible compared to this. It's amazing. (:
Is there any spiritual significance to laminin?
Truthfully no. The most that one can gather from a laminin is the diagram shape is of a cross. I have heard a few sermons and talks of how the laminin is a sign of God or a metaphor for the way Christ holds together the church, the world, or etc. I simply ask that we, as Christians, please leave these instances as merely metaphors. Do not use these in any apologetic conversations as they have no debatable merit.
Have you googled an image of Laminin?
yup. T shaped with blobs on the end. Have you googled integrin?
