Integrated analysis reveals the alterations that LMNA interacts with euchromatin in LMNA mutation-associated dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Clinical Epigenetics, 2021 Abstract Background Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a serious cardiac heterogeneous pathological disease, which may be caused by mutations in the LMNA gene. Lamins interact with not only lamina-associated domains (LADs) but also euchromatin by alone or associates with the lamina-associated polypeptide 2 alpha (LAP2α ...

LMNA E82K mutation activates FAS and mitochondrial pathways of apoptosis in heart tissue specific transgenic mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The lamin A/C (LMNA), nuclear intermediate filament proteins, is a basic component of the nuclear lamina. Mutations in LMNA are associated with a broad range of laminopathies, congenital diseases affecting tissue regeneration and homeostasis.

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

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 In this work, we studied an lmna nonsense mutation encoding for the C-terminally truncated Lamin A/C (LMNA) variant Q517X, which was described in patients affected by a severe arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with history of sudden death. We found that LMNA
