Structural mechanism of laminin recognition by integrin

Recognition of laminin by integrin receptors mediates epithelial cell adhesion to basement membrane. Here, the structures of the α6β1 integrin alone and in complex with three-chain laminin-511 fragment reveal the laminin-integrin interface in molecular detail.
