Recombinant Lamin-A

Lamin-A
Lamin-A Recombinant
Catalog No. PRO-690

Description:
Recombinant Lamin A produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 645 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 70 kDa. Lamin-A is a major component of the nuclear lamina, a dynamic meshwork located just under the nuclear envelope and it is encoded by lamin A/C gene (LMNA).
Lamin-A is synthesized as Prelamin A, a longer precursor that in vivo goes through a serial post-translational modifications that lead to mature Lamin A.
Diverse mutations in the Lamin A/C gene are associated with different diseases that are collectively called laminophaties, including Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, familiar partial lipodystrophy, limb girdle muscular dystrophy, dilated cardiomyopathy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, and Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
