High impact information on NID1

Laminin, nidogen, agrin, collagen IV, and XVIII are major constituents of the retinal basal lamina [1].
Collagen IV and perlecan originate predominantly from the lens epithelium, whereas collagen XVIII, nidogen, and the laminin gamma 1 and beta1 chains are synthesized mainly by the ciliary body [2].
Chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase functions as a binding protein for the laminin/nidogen complex [3].
