Invaginations of the nuclear membrane occur in different shapes, sizes, and compositions. Part of these pleiomorphic invaginations make up the nucleoplasmic reticulum (NR), while others are merely nuclear folds.

In higher eukaryotes, nuclear envelope (NE) disassembly allows chromatin to condense and spindle microtubules to access kinetochores. The nuclear lamina, which strengthens the NE, is composed of a polymer meshwork made of A- and B-type lamins.

Lamin post-translational modifications: emerging toggles of nuclear organization and function.
Nuclear lamins are ancient type V intermediate filaments with diverse functions that include maintaining nuclear shape, mechanosignaling, tethering and stabilizing chromatin, regulating gene expression, and contributing to cell cycle progression. Despite

A-type lamin networks in light of laminopathic diseases
Lamins are major structural components of the lamina providing mechanical support for the nuclear envelope in vertebrates. A subgroup of lamins, the A-type lamins, are only expressed in differentiated cells and serve important functions both at the nuclear envelope and in the nucleoplasm in higher order chromatin organization and gene regulation ...

Role of A-type lamins in signaling, transcription, and chromatin organization [PDF]
A-type lamins (lamins A and C), encoded by the LMNA gene, are major protein constituents of the mammalian nuclear lamina, a complex structure that acts as a scaffold for protein complexes that regulate nuclear structure and functions. Interest in these proteins has increased in recent years with the discovery that LMNA mutations cause a variety of ...

Lamin B1 acetylation slows the G1 to S cell cycle transition through inhibition of DNA repair
The integrity and regulation of the nuclear lamina is essential for nuclear organization and chromatin stability, with its dysregulation being linked to laminopathy diseases and cancer.

Genomic structure of the mouse A‐type lamin gene locus encoding somatic and germ cell‐specific lamins [PDF]
Mouse A‐type lamin genes were isolated. Structural analyses revealed that all the three known mouse A‐type lamins (A, C and C2) were coded in a single genomic locus in a 22 kilobase DNA segment. The three lamins were coded in 12, 10 and 10 exons for A, C and C2, respectively, and shared 8 exons among them.

Macrophage‐derived MLKL in alcohol‐associated liver disease: Regulation of phagocytosis
EtOH causes leaky gut allowing bacteria and PAMPs into the liver, resulting in hepatic inflammation and injury. We demonstrate that LPS induces STAT1‐mediated expression and phosphorylation of MLKL in macrophages and identify a novel function that myeloid MLKL translocates to phagosomes and lysosomes and regulates phagocytosis, which contributes to the
