Restructuring of Lamina-Associated Domains in Senescence and Cancer [PDF]
Induction of cellular senescence or cancer is associated with a reshaping of the nuclear envelope and a broad reorganization of heterochromatin. At the periphery of mammalian nuclei, heterochromatin is stabilized at the nuclear lamina via lamina ...

Lamina-associated domains: peripheral matters and internal affairs [PDF]
At the nuclear periphery, associations of chromatin with the nuclear lamina through lamina-associated domains (LADs) aid functional organization of the genome.

Lamina Associated Domains and Gene Regulation in Development and Cancer [PDF]
The nuclear lamina (NL) is a thin meshwork of filaments that lines the inner nuclear membrane, thereby providing a platform for chromatin binding and supporting genome organization.

Chromatin protein complexes involved in gene repression in lamina-associated domains [PDF]
Lamina-associated domains (LADs) are large chromatin regions that are associated with the nuclear lamina (NL) and form a repressive environment for transcription. The molecular players that mediate gene repression in LADs are currently unknown.

Mapping the micro-proteome of the nuclear lamina and lamina-associated domains [PDF]
The nuclear lamina provides structure to the nucleus and serves as an interface between the cytoskeleton and large heterochromatin domains called LADs. This study describes the microproteome of this LAD/lamina interface.

Epigenetic deregulation of lamina-associated domains in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome [PDF]
Background Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a progeroid disease characterized by the early onset of age-related phenotypes including arthritis, loss of body fat and hair, and atherosclerosis. Cells from affected individuals express a mutant

Local euchromatin enrichment in lamina-associated domains anticipates their repositioning in the adipogenic lineage [PDF]
Background Interactions of chromatin with the nuclear lamina via lamina-associated domains (LADs) confer structural stability to the genome. The dynamics of positioning of LADs during differentiation, and how LADs impinge on developmental gene expression,

Transcription-independent TFIIIC-bound sites cluster near heterochromatin boundaries within lamina-associated domains in C. elegans [PDF]
Background Chromatin organization is central to precise control of gene expression. In various eukaryotic species, domains of pervasive cis-chromatin interactions demarcate functional domains of the genomes.

Strong interactions between highly dynamic lamina-associated domains and the nuclear envelope stabilize the 3D architecture of Drosophila interphase chromatin [PDF]
Background Interactions among topologically associating domains (TADs), and between the nuclear envelope (NE) and lamina-associated domains (LADs) are expected to shape various aspects of three-dimensional (3D) chromatin structure and dynamics; however ...

Choreography of lamina‐associated domains: structure meets dynamics [PDF]
Lamina‐associated domains are large regions of heterochromatin positioned at the nuclear periphery. These domains have been implicated in gene repression, especially in the context of development. In mammals, LAD organization is dependent on nuclear lamins, inner nuclear membrane proteins, and chromatin state.
