The Use of Emerin-Null and EDMD-Causing Emerin Mutant Myogenic Progenitors to Elucidate the EDMD Mechanism

open access: yes, 2020
Mutations in the gene encoding emerin (EMD) cause Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD1), an inherited disorder characterized by progressive skeletal muscle wasting, irregular heart rhythms and contractures of major tendons.

Developmental changes in nuclear lamina components during germ cell differentiation

open access: yesNucleus
The nuclear lamina (NL) changes composition for regulation of nuclear events. We investigated changes that occur in Drosophila oogenesis, revealing switches in NL composition during germ cell differentiation.

IMPACT OF BETA‐DYSTROGLYCAN DEFICIENCY ON EMERIN FUNCTIONS

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2018
Beta‐dystroglycan (b‐DG) is a plasma membrane protein that belongs to the dystrophin‐associated protein complex (DAPC), the latter provides a link between the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton. Previously we reported that b‐DG is translocated localized to the nucleus via recognition of its nuclear localization signal (NLS), located in the ...

Nuclear envelope proteins and chromatin arrangement: a pathogenic mechanism for laminopathies

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2009
The involvement of the nuclear envelope in the modulation of chromatin organization is strongly suggested by the increasing number of human diseases due to mutations of nuclear envelope proteins.

Investigating the Role of Emerin in Nuclear Envelope Budding and Muscular Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Nuclear envelope (NE) budding was first observed in the mid-20th century and has garnered more interest in recent years. Believed to follow a mechanism similar to herpes virus (HV) egress, the dynamics of this phenomenon have not been well documented in ...

Emerin Binds the Pointed End of Actin Filaments

open access: yes, 2013
(A) Gelsolin–actin seeds were incubated with increasing concentrations of wild-type emerin residues 1–222. Emerin significantly reduced the rate of subunit addition at the pointed end, with an apparent Kd of 430 nM (range, 300–500 nM, n = 12). R, rate of

An Intronic Heterozygous SYNE2 Splice Site Mutation: A Rare Cause for Myalgia and hyperCKemia?

open access: yesMuscles
SYNE2 mutations have been associated with skeletal and cardiac muscle diseases, including Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD). Here, we present a 70-year-old male patient with muscle pain and elevated serum creatine kinase levels in whom whole-exome

The Role of Emerin in Myogenic Differentiation

open access: yes
The nucleus harbors genetic material encapsulated by the nuclear envelope which is composed of an inner and outer nuclear membrane. The establishment and organization of chromatin at the INM is essential for cell fate during the differentiation program ...

The cell cycle dependent mislocalisation of emerin may contribute to the Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy phenotype

open access: yes, 2002
Emerin is the nuclear membrane protein defective in X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (X-EDMD). The majority of X-EDMD patients have no detectable emerin.
