Laminin-511 and its cell-binding domain support long-term self-renewal of human pluripotent stem cells in xeno-free culture conditions. Here the authors show that a xeno-free culture matrix consisting of a full-length laminin-521 and the cell–cell adhesion protein E-cadherin supports clonal expansion of human embryonic stem cells.
