Transform Plate Boundaries. Transform Plate Boundaries are locations where two plates slide past one another. The fracture zone that forms a transform plate boundary is known as a transform fault. Most transform faults are found in the ocean basin and connect offsets in the mid-ocean ridges.
Laminin function and loss-of-function studies. Laminin exerts many different functions, including embryogenesis, vascular maturation, and neuromuscular development [8, 34, 35, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41]. These functions are highly dependent on laminin isoforms, their cellular sources, and developmental stages.
The main function of melanin is to provide pigmentation mainly to the skin, hair and iris of the eye. In addition melanin is important in protecting the skin from ultra violet rays of the sun which can be damaging. This is why albinos are highly susceptible to skin problems such as sun burns caused by UV rays.elanin is produced in the skin in cells known as melanocytes and through a process called melanogenesis. There exist different subtypes of melanin which are found in different people and different parts of the body.
