Role of structural flexibility in the evolution of emerin.

Abstract excerpt

Emerin is a short inner nuclear membrane protein with an LEM-domain at the N-terminal end and a transmembrane domain at the C-terminal end. The middle region of human emerin contains multiple binding motifs. Since emerin is often found in evolutionarily newer species, the functional conservation of emerin becomes an interesting topic. In this study, we have demonstrated that most of the functional motifs of...
