A novel LMNA mutation identified in a Japanese patient with LMNA-associated congenital muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Genome Variation, 2018
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]

open access: yesPLoS 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

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.

Role of Nuclear Lamin A/C in the Regulation of Nav1.5 Channel and Microtubules: Lesson From the Pathogenic Lamin A/C Variant Q517X

open access: yesFrontiers 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

Viscoelastic behavior of cardiomyocytes carrying LMNA mutations [PDF]

open access: yesBiorheology: The Official Journal of the International Society of Biorheology, 2020
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 ...

The farnesyl transferase inhibitor (FTI) lonafarnib improves nuclear morphology in ZMPSTE24-deficient fibroblasts from patients with the progeroid disorder MAD-B

open access: yesNucleus, 2023
Several related progeroid disorders are caused by defective post-translational processing of prelamin A, the precursor of the nuclear scaffold protein lamin A, encoded by LMNA.

Novel LMNA mutations in patients with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy and functional characterization of four LMNA mutations [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Mutation, 2011
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,

Mapping the contact surfaces in the Lamin A:AIMP3 complex by hydrogen/deuterium exchange FT-ICR mass spectrometry.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases-interacting multifunctional protein3 (AIMP3/p18) is involved in the macromolecular tRNA synthetase complex via its interaction with several aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases.
