A novel LMNA mutation identified in a Japanese patient with LMNA-associated congenital muscular dystrophy [PDF]
AbstractLMNA-associated congenital muscular dystrophy (L-CMD) is a severe form of muscle laminopathy. LMNA encodes lamin A, which an intermediate filament protein that attaches to the inner membrane of the nuclear envelope. We performed sequence analysis based on our original targeted gene panel system for muscle diseases to obtain a molecular ...

LMNA E82K mutation activates FAS and mitochondrial pathways of apoptosis in heart tissue specific transgenic mice. [PDF]
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
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.

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

Viscoelastic behavior of cardiomyocytes carrying LMNA mutations [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Laminopathies are genetic diseases caused by mutations in the nuclear lamina. OBJECTIVE: Given the clinical impact of laminopathies, understanding mechanical properties of cells bearing lamin mutations will lead to ...

Novel LMNA mutations in patients with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy and functional characterization of four LMNA mutations [PDF]
Mutations in LMNA cause a variety of diseases affecting striated muscle including autosomal Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD), LMNA-associated congenital muscular dystrophy (L-CMD), and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 1B (LGMD1B). Here, we describe novel and recurrent LMNA mutations identified in 50 patients from the United States and Canada,
