Abstract excerpt
Lamins interact with the nuclear membrane and chromatin but the precise players and mechanisms of these interactions are unknown. Here, we tested whether the removal of the CaaX motif from Lamin B disrupts its attachment to the nuclear membrane and affects chromatin distribution. We usedDrosophila melanogaster LamA25 homozygous mutants that lack the CaaX box. We found that the mutant Lamin B was not confined to...
