Abstract excerpt
Xenopus lamin A and a lamin A mutant lacking the complete 280 amino acid long carboxy-terminal tail were expressed in bacteria and purified from inclusion bodies. Electron microscopic analysis of lamin A dimers revealed that the carboxy-terminal 280 amino acids correspond to the globular domain seen in rotary-shadowed wild-type lamin and that the rodlike domain consists of the short non-helical amino terminus and...
