Nuclear lamin phosphorylation: an emerging role in gene regulation and pathogenesis of laminopathies
Decades of studies have established that nuclear lamin polymers form the nuclear lamina, a protein meshwork that supports the nuclear envelope structure and tethers heterochromatin to the nuclear periphery.

Background Lamin A/C is very important in DNA replication, RNA dependent transcription and nuclear stabilization. Reduced or absent lamin A/C expression has been found to be a common feature of a variety of different cancers.

Filament assembly of the C. elegans lamin in the absence of helix 1A
Lamins are the major constituent of the nuclear lamina, a protein meshwork underlying the inner nuclear membrane. Nuclear lamins are type V intermediate filaments that assemble into ~3.5 nm thick filaments.

Lamin A, lamin B, and lamin B receptor analogues in yeast. [PDF]
Previous studies have shown that turkey erythrocyte lamin B is anchored to the nuclear envelope via a 58-kD integral membrane protein termed p58 or lamin B receptor (Worman H. J., J. Yuan, G. Blobel, and S. D. Georgatos. 1988. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 85:8531-8534). We now identify a p58 analogue in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Chromatin and lamin A determine two different mechanical response regimes of the cell nucleus
Micromanipulation force measurements of single isolated nuclei at physiological strains and strain rates reveal two distinct cell nuclear mechanical regimes differentially governed by chromatin and lamin A.

Influences of lamin A levels on induction of pluripotent stem cells
Summary Lamin A is an inner nuclear membrane protein that maintains nuclear structure integrity, is involved in transcription, DNA damage response and genomic stability, and also links to cell differentiation, senescence, premature aging and associated ...

Altered stability of nuclear lamin-B marks the onset of aging in male Drosophila.
Epigenetic alterations occur during aging, but it remains unclear what epigenetic features are associated with the onset of physiological decline in animals.

Clinical frailty affects ∼10% of people over age 65 and is studied in a chronically inflamed (Interleukin-10 knockout; “IL10-KO”) mouse model. Frailty phenotypes overlap the spectrum of diseases (“laminopathies”) caused by mutations in LMNA. LMNA encodes

Mammalian telomeres and their partnership with lamins [PDF]
Chromosome ends are complex structures, which require a panel of factors for their elongation, replication, and protection. We describe here the mechanics of mammalian telomeres, dynamics and maintainance in relation to lamins.
