Lamina-associated domains: Tethers and looseners

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2022
Lamina-associated domains (LADs) are large heterochromatic regions that are positioned at the nuclear lamina (NL). A major question is how LAD-NL interactions are mediated and controlled. Here, we review recent progress in the search for molecular tethers and looseners of LADs and we discuss the link between LAD-NL tethering, transcription regulation ...

CTCF supports preferentially short lamina-associated domains

Chromosome Research, 2022
More than one third of the mammalian genome is in a close association with the nuclear lamina, thus these genomic regions were termed lamina-associated domains (LADs). This association is fundamental for many aspects of chromatin biology including transcription, replication, and DNA damage repair.

Genome regulation at the peripheral zone: lamina associated domains in development and disease

Current Opinion in Genetics and Development, 2014
The nuclear periphery has been implicated in gene regulation and it has been proposed that proximity to the nuclear lamina and inner nuclear membrane (INM) leads to gene repression. More recently, it appears that there is a correlation and interdependence between lamina associated domains (LADs), the epigenome and overall three-dimensional architecture

Nuclear lamins are not required for lamina‐associated domain organization in mouse embryonic stem cells [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO Reports, 2015
In mammals, the nuclear lamina interacts with hundreds of large genomic regions, termed lamina-associated domains (LADs) that are generally in a transcriptionally repressed state. Lamins form the major structural component of the lamina and have been reported to bind DNA and chromatin.

Caspase-mediated cleavage of the chromosome-binding domain of lamina-associated polypeptide 2α

Journal of Cell Science, 2000
ABSTRACT Lamina-associated polypeptide 2α (LAP2α) is a non-membrane-bound isoform of the LAP2 family involved in nuclear structure organization. Using various cell systems, including Jurkat, HL-60, and HeLa cells, and different death-inducing agents, such as anti-Fas antibody, topoisomerase inhibitors, and staurosporine, we found that ...

Nonspecific steric hindrance of protein particles by lamina-associated domains

Genomic organization within the nucleus is crucial for gene regulation and cell health, as disruptions in this organization are linked to genetic disorders and cancers. Recent studies suggest that molecular-scale organization of chromatin near the nuclear periphery (lamina-associated domains, LADs) affects gene regulation, providing transciptional ...

Substructure and maturation of lamina-associated domains in neurons of the developing and adult human brain

Summary Approximately 30-40% of the human genome is anchored to the nuclear lamina (NL) through variably sized (10 kb-10 Mb) lamina-associated domains (LADs), which can be classified into two subtypes (T1 and T2) based on their level of lamina-association.
