Disruption of Nuclear‐Cytoskeletal Linkage by Coil‐1a LMNA Mutations in Emery–Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Emery–Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) is a progressive genetic myopathy that mainly affects the muscles used for movement (skeletal muscles) and the heart (cardiac muscles). The disease is frequently associated with mutations in genes encoding nuclear envelope proteins, most notably LMNA, which encodes lamin A—a critical ...

Functional association of Sun1 with nuclear pore complexes [PDF]
Sun1 and 2 are A-type lamin-binding proteins that, in association with nesprins, form a link between the inner nuclear membranes (INMs) and outer nuclear membranes of mammalian nuclear envelopes. Both immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy reveal that Sun1 but not Sun2 is intimately associated with nuclear pore complexes (NPCs).

The SUN1 splicing variants SUN1_888 and SUN1_916 differentially regulate nucleolar structure [PDF]
AbstractThe nucleolar structure is highly dynamic and strictly regulated in response to internal cues, such as metabolic rates, and to external cues, such as mechanical forces applied to cells. Although the multilayered nucleolar structure is largely determined by the liquid‐like properties of RNA and proteins, the mechanisms regulating the morphology ...

Reversal of laminopathies: the curious case of SUN1 [PDF]
Mutations in the LMNA gene are associated with a spectrum of human dystrophic diseases termed the "nuclear laminopathies." We recently found that the accumulation of the inner nuclear envelope proteins SUN1 is pathogenic in progeric and dystrophic laminopathies. This conclusion arose from the unexpected observation that the deletion of Sun1, instead of

Differential incorporation of SUN-domain proteins into LINC complexes is coupled to gene expression. [PDF]
LInkers of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton (LINC) complexes, composed of SUN and KASH-domain proteins, span the nuclear envelope and physically connect the nuclear interior to cytoskeletal elements.

The SUN2-nesprin-2 LINC complex and KIF20A function in the Golgi dispersal
The morphology of the Golgi complex is influenced by the cellular context, which strictly correlates with nuclear functions; however, the mechanism underlying this association remains elusive.

The LINC complex, consisting of interacting SUN and KASH proteins, mechanically couples nuclear contents to the cytoskeleton. In meiosis, the LINC complex transmits microtubule-generated forces to chromosome ends, driving the rapid chromosome movements ...

First observation of the M1 transition $\psi(3686)\to \gamma\eta_c(2S)$ [PDF]
Using a sample of 106 million \psi(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, we have made the first measurement of the M1 transition between the radially excited charmonium S-wave spin-triplet and the radially excited S ...

Mutations in the LaminA gene are the second most common inherited cause of Dilated Cardiomyopathy, a major form of heart failure. Here the authors show that disruption of the nuclear protein SUN1 in cardiomyocytes, by AAV mediated transduction of a SUN1 ...
