Changes in the Nuclear Envelope in Laminopathies

Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, 2018
Double-membrane-bound nucleus is the major organelle of every metazoan cell, which controls various nuclear processes like chromatin maintenance, DNA replication, transcription and nucleoskeleton-cytoskeleton coupling. Nuclear homeostasis depends on the integrity of nuclear membrane and associated proteins. Lamins, underlying the inner nuclear membrane

Laminopathies

The Journal of Pathology, 2004
AbstractNuclear lamins form a fibrous nucleoskeletal network of intermediate‐sized filaments that underlies the inner nuclear membrane. It associates with this membrane through interactions with specific integral nuclear membrane proteins, while within this flattened lamin lattice the nuclear pore complexes are embedded. Next to this peripheral network,

Molecular Pathology of Laminopathies

Annual Review of Pathology: Mechanisms of Disease, 2022
The nuclear envelope is composed of the nuclear membranes, nuclear lamina, and nuclear pore complexes. Laminopathies are diseases caused by mutations in genes encoding protein components of the lamina and these other nuclear envelope substructures. Mutations in the single gene encoding lamin A and C, which are expressed in most differentiated somatic ...

Laminopathies: A chromatin affair

Advances in Enzyme Regulation, 2006
In the last 5 years, an impressive series of genetic diseases (16 distinct diseased phenotypes have been so far identified), affecting metabolic and/or developmental processes, have been demonstrated to be caused by mutation of LMNA gene and collectively referred to as laminopathies.

Laminopathies

2012
The laminopathies are a group of rare diseases characterized by a vast range of phenotypic alterations, due to mutations in lamin A and C or other nuclear envelope proteins. A-type lamins, as well as B-type lamins, belong to the type V intermediate filaments and, by polymerization, form the nuclear lamina, a component of the nuclear envelope. Following

Involvement of Prelamin A in Laminopathies

Critical Reviews™ in Eukaryotic Gene Expression, 2007
The precursor protein of the nuclear lamina constituent lamin A is a 74-kDa protein called prelamin A which undergoes subsequent steps of posttranslational modification at its C-terminal CaaX residue. The unexpected finding that accumulation of unprocessable prelamin A is the molecular basis of the most severe laminopathies so far identified, including

Laminopathies in Russian families

Clinical Genetics, 2008
Mutations in LMNA gene produce a wide spectrum of disorders called laminopathies. In this article, the first cases of laminopathies from Russia are reported. In 10 unrelated families, 9 different mutations were identified: Asp47His, Gly232Arg, c.[781_783delAAG, 781insGTGGAGCAGTATAAGAAA], Arg249Gln (in two families), Arg377His, Arg541His, Ala350Pro ...

Striated muscle laminopathies

Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2014
Lamins A and C, encoded by LMNA, are constituent of the nuclear lamina, a meshwork of proteins underneath the nuclear envelope first described as scaffolding proteins of the nucleus. Since the discovery of LMNA mutations in highly heterogeneous human disorders (including cardiac and muscular dystrophies, lipodystrophies and progeria), the number of ...

The laminopathies: a clinical review

Clinical Genetics, 2006
The laminopathies are a diverse group of conditions caused by mutations in the LMNA gene (MIM*150330). LMNA encodes the nuclear envelope proteins lamin A and lamin C by utilization of an alternative splice site in exon 10. The human LMNA gene was identified in 1986 but it was another 13 years before it was found to be the causative gene for a disease ...

Restrictive dermopathy: a rare laminopathy

Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2008
Restrictive dermopathy (RD) belongs to the laminopathies and mostly shows an autosomal recessive heredity pattern. This rare genetic disorder is lethal for the newborn in the neonatal period. Clinical and pathological findings are distinctive and allow for a specific diagnosis in most cases.
