Nidogen-1 is a member of thenidogen family ofbasement membrane glycoproteins. The protein interacts with several other components of basement membranes. Structurally it (along withperlecan) connects the networks formed bycollagens andlaminins to each other.[9] It may also play a role in cell interactions with theextracellular matrix.[10][11]
