The telomeric protein AKTIP interacts with A- and B-type lamins and is involved in regulation of cellular senescence [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2016
AKTIP is a shelterin-interacting protein required for replication of telomeric DNA. Here, we show that AKTIP biochemically interacts with A- and B-type lamins and affects lamin A, but not lamin C or B, expression.

Skeletal Muscle Laminopathies: A Review of Clinical and Molecular Features

open access: yesCells, 2016
LMNA-related disorders are caused by mutations in the LMNA gene, which encodes for the nuclear envelope proteins, lamin A and C, via alternative splicing.

Modeling Skeletal Muscle Laminopathies Using Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Carrying Pathogenic LMNA Mutations

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Laminopathies are a clinically heterogeneous group of disorders caused by mutations in LMNA. The main proteins encoded by LMNA are Lamin A and C, which together with Lamin B1 and B2, form the nuclear lamina: a mesh-like structure located underneath the ...

Cellular and Animal Models of Striated Muscle Laminopathies

open access: yesCells, 2019
The lamin A/C (LMNA) gene codes for nuclear intermediate filaments constitutive of the nuclear lamina. LMNA has 12 exons and alternative splicing of exon 10 results in two major isoforms—lamins A and C.

Nuclear lamin phosphorylation: an emerging role in gene regulation and pathogenesis of laminopathies

open access: yesNucleus, 2020
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.

Genomic analysis of a novel pathogenic variant in the gene LMNA associated with cardiac laminopathies found in Ecuadorian siblings: A case report

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
IntroductionCardiac laminopathies are caused by mutations in the LMNA gene and include a wide range of clinical manifestations involving electrical and mechanical changes in cardiomyocytes.

Need for NAD+: Focus on Striated Muscle Laminopathies

open access: yesCells, 2020
Laminopathies are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases caused by genetic mutations in the LMNA gene, encoding A-type lamins. A-type lamins are nuclear envelope proteins which associate with B-type lamins to form the nuclear lamina, a meshwork ...

Generation of two iPSC lines (FAMRCi006-A and FAMRCi006-B) from patient with dilated cardiomyopathy and Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy associated with genetic variant LMNAp.Arg527Pro.

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2020
Mutations in LMNA gene are known to cause a broad range of diseases called laminopathies. We have generated two induced pluripotent stem cell lines FAMRCi006-A and FAMRCi006-B from a patient carrying LMNA p.

Characterization of cardiac involvement in children with LMNA-related muscular dystrophy

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Introduction: LMNA-related muscular dystrophy is a rare entity that produce “laminopathies” such as Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD), limb–girdle muscular dystrophy type 1B (LGMD1B), and LMNA-related congenital muscular dystrophy (L-CMD).

Accurate detection of dysmorphic nuclei using dynamic programming and supervised classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A vast array of pathologies is typified by the presence of nuclei with an abnormal morphology. Dysmorphic nuclear phenotypes feature dramatic size changes or foldings, but also entail much subtler deviations such as nuclear protrusions called blebs.
