Mutant lamins cause nuclear envelope rupture and DNA damage in skeletal muscle cells
2018-07-07
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Mutations in the human LMNA gene, which encodes the nuclear envelope (NE) proteins lamins A and C, cause autosomal dominant Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, congenital muscular dystrophy, limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, and other diseases collectively known as laminopathies. The molecular mechanisms responsible for these diseases remain incompletely understood, but the muscle-specific defects...
