Specific nuclear envelope transmembrane proteins can promote the location of chromosomes to and from the nuclear periphery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Different cell types have distinctive patterns of chromosome positioning in the nucleus. Although ectopic affinity-tethering of specific loci can be used to relocate chromosomes to the nuclear periphery, endogenous nuclear envelope proteins ...

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.

Ancient eukaryotic origin and evolutionary plasticity of nuclear lamina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The emergence of the nucleus was a major event of eukaryogenesis. How the nuclear envelope (NE) arose and acquired functions governing chromatin organization and epigenetic control has direct bearing on origins of developmental/stage-specific expression ...

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.

Characterization of the DNA binding property of emerin

open access: yesProceedings of the Japan Academy, Series B, 2001
Emerin is an inner nuclear membrane protein, which is the gene product responsible for X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (X-EDMD). In this study we extracted emerin from mammalian cells and examined the DNA binding property by in vitro binding assay with double-strand DNA cellulose.

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 ...

An inner nuclear membrane protein induces rapid differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2017
The ability of iPSCs (induced pluripotent stem cells) to generate any cell type in the body makes them valuable tools for cell replacement therapies. However, differentiation of iPSCs can be demanding, slow and variable.

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

Distrofia muscular de Emery-Dreifuss: a propósito de um caso clínico

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2012
Resumo: A distrofia muscular de Emery Dreifuss tipo 1 (DMED1) é uma doença familiar, com transmissão recessiva ligada ao X, resultante da mutação de uma proteína do invólucro nuclear, a emerina.
