NCIt definition : Human LAMA2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 6q22.33 and is approximately 633 kb in length. This allele, which encodes laminin subunit alpha-2 protein, plays a role in laminin assembly. Mutations in the gene are associated with both congenital merosin-deficient muscular dystrophy and autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 23.;
