Hemicentin-1 is an essential extracellular matrix component of the dermal–epidermal and myotendinous junctions

Abstract The extracellular matrix architecture is composed of supramolecular fibrillar networks that define tissue specific cellular microenvironments. Hemicentins (Hmcn1 and Hmcn2) are ancient and very large members (> 600 kDa) of the fibulin family, whose short members are known to guide proper...
