Alterations to nuclear architecture and genome behavior in senescent cells. [PDF]
The organization of the genome within interphase nuclei, and how it interacts with nuclear structures is important for the regulation of nuclear functions.

The intriguing plant nuclear lamina
The nuclear lamina is a complex protein mesh attached to the inner nuclear membrane, which is also associated with nuclear pore complexes. It provides mechanical support to the nucleus and nuclear envelope, and as well as facilitating the connection of ...

3D Single Molecule Super-Resolution Microscopy of Whole Nuclear Lamina
Single molecule (SM) super-resolution microscopies bypass the diffraction limit of conventional optical techniques and provide excellent spatial resolutions in the tens of nanometers without overly complex microscope hardware.

Hi-C-constrained physical models of human chromosomes recover functionally-related properties of genome organization [PDF]
Combining genome-wide structural models with phenomenological data is at the forefront of efforts to understand the organizational principles regulating the human genome. Here, we use chromosome-chromosome contact data as knowledge-based constraints for large-scale three-dimensional models of the human diploid genome.

Nuclear Envelope, Nuclear Lamina, and Inherited Disease [PDF]
The nuclear envelope is composed of the nuclear membranes, nuclear lamina, and nuclear pore complexes. In recent years, mutations in nuclear-envelope proteins have been shown to cause a surprisingly wide array of inherited diseases.

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.

Role of lamins in 3D genome organization and global gene expression
Genome-wide mapping of lamin-B1-genome interactions has shown that gene-poor and transcriptionally inactive genomic regions are associated with the nuclear lamina.

Restructuring of Lamina-Associated Domains in Senescence and Cancer
Induction of cellular senescence or cancer is associated with a reshaping of the nuclear envelope and a broad reorganization of heterochromatin. At the periphery of mammalian nuclei, heterochromatin is stabilized at the nuclear lamina via lamina ...

Deformation of the nucleus by TGFβ1 via the remodeling of nuclear envelope and histone isoforms
The cause of nuclear shape abnormalities which are often seen in pre-neoplastic and malignant tissues is not clear. In this study we report that deformation of the nucleus can be induced by TGFβ1 stimulation in several cell lines including Huh7.

Involvement of the Lamin Rod Domain in Heterotypic Lamin Interactions Important for Nuclear Organization [PDF]
The nuclear lamina is a meshwork of intermediate-type filament proteins (lamins) that lines the inner nuclear membrane. The lamina is proposed to be an important determinant of nuclear structure, but there has been little direct testing of this idea.
