A-type lamins provide a scaffold for tethering chromatin and protein complexes regulating nuclear structure and function. Interest in lamins increased after mutations in the LMNA gene were found to be associated with a variety of human disorders termed laminopathies. These include muscular dystrophy, cardiomyopathy, lipodystrophy, peripheral neuropathy

Lamin A, Chromatin and FPLD2: Not Just a Peripheral Ménage-à-Trois
At the nuclear periphery, the genome is anchored to A- and B-type nuclear lamins in the form of heterochromatic lamina-associated domains. A-type lamins also associate with chromatin in the nuclear interior, away from the peripheral nuclear lamina.

Background: MLIP (muscle enriched A-type lamin-interacting protein) is a unique protein of yet unknown function. Results: MLIP impacts cardiac activity of Akt/mTOR pathways and is associated with and required for precocious cardiac adaptation to stress ...

Simple Summary The nucleus is the largest and stiffest organelle of tumor cells. Cancer metastasis depends on the ability of cancer cells circulating in the blood to exit blood vessels and survive in target organs.

A Rare Mutation in LMNB2 Associated with Lipodystrophy Drives Premature Cell Senescence
Many proteins are causative for inherited partial lipodystrophies, including lamins, the essential constituents of the nuclear envelope scaffold called the lamina.

Nuclear lamin A in rotator cuff tear margin tenocytes: an antiapoptotic and cell mechanostat factor
Background The network of intermediate filament proteins underlying the inner nuclear membrane forms the nuclear lamin. A- and B-type lamins are the major components of the nuclear lamina. Lamins function in many nuclear activities.

Perturbation of wild‐type lamin A metabolism results in a progeroid phenotype [PDF]
SummaryMutations in the lamin A/C gene cause the rare genetic disorder Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). The prevalent mutation results in the production of a mutant lamin A protein with an internal 50 amino acid deletion which causes a cellular aging phenotype characterized by growth defects, limited replicative lifespan, and nuclear ...

Voltage gain effect in a ring-type magnetoelectric laminate [PDF]
It has been observed that a ring-type magnetoelectric laminate composite of circumferentially magnetized magnetostrictive Tb1−xDyxFe2 and circumferentially polarized piezoelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 layers has a large magnetoelectric voltage gain effect, offering potential in high-power miniature transformer applications.

Perinuclear Lamin A and Nucleoplasmic Lamin B2 Characterize Two Types of Hippocampal Neurons through Alzheimer’s Disease Progression [PDF]
Background. Recent reports point to a nuclear origin of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aged postmitotic neurons try to repair their damaged DNA by entering the cell cycle. This aberrant cell cycle re-entry involves chromatin modifications where nuclear Tau and the nuclear lamin are involved.
