Nuclear lamina invaginations are not a pathological feature of C9orf72 ALS/FTD [PDF]
The most common genetic cause of familial and sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat expansion (HRE) in the C9orf72 gene.

Autosomal Dominant Leukodystrophy: A Disease of the Nuclear Lamina [PDF]
The nuclear lamina is a fibrous meshwork of proteins found adjacent to the inner nuclear membrane that plays a critical role in the maintenance of nuclear architecture.

Nuclear lamina dysfunction triggers a germline stem cell checkpoint
Otefin is a nuclear lamina protein required for survival of Drosophila germ stem cells. Here the authors show that nuclear lamina dysfunction resulting from loss of Otefin activates a DNA damage-independent germ stem cell-specific checkpoint, mediated by

Reorganization of the nuclear lamina and cytoskeleton in adipogenesis [PDF]
A thorough understanding of fat cell biology is necessary to counter the epidemic of obesity. Although molecular pathways governing adipogenesis are well delineated, the structure of the nuclear lamina and nuclear-cytoskeleton junction in this process are not.

Constitutive nuclear lamina–genome interactions are highly conserved and associated with A/T-rich sequence [PDF]
In metazoans, the nuclear lamina is thought to play an important role in the spatial organization of interphase chromosomes, by providing anchoring sites for large genomic segments named lamina-associated domains (LADs).

The nuclear lamina is a hub for the nuclear function of Jacob. [PDF]
AbstractJacob is a synapto-nuclear messenger protein that couples NMDAR activity to CREB-dependent gene expression. In this study, we investigated the nuclear distribution of Jacob and report a prominent targeting to the nuclear envelope that requires NMDAR activity and nuclear import.

Xist recruits the X chromosome to the nuclear lamina to enable chromosome-wide silencing [PDF]
The Xist long noncoding RNA orchestrates X chromosome inactivation, a process that entails chromosome-wide silencing and remodeling of the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the X chromosome.
