Lamin A precursor induces barrier-to-autointegration factor nuclear localization

Abstract: Lamin A, a protein component of the nuclear lamina, is synthesized as a precursor named prelamin A, whose multi-step maturation process involves different protein intermediates. As demonstrated in laminopathies such as familial partial lipodystrophy, mandibuloacral dysplasia, Werner syndrome, Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome and restrictive dermopathy, failure of prelamin A processing results in the accumulation of lamin A protein precursors inside the nucleus which dominantly produces aberrant chromatin s… Show more

“…Our data add to the evidence that prelamin A is accumulated in normal smooth muscle cells during ageing as an effect of FACE1 downregulation (Ragnauth et al, 2010) and to our previously published data showing a physiological role of prelamin A Capanni et al, 2010;Mattioli et al, 2011). We envisage that a non-modulated, thus inappropriate, response mechanism is activated in laminopathies as a result of molecular defects.…”

“…Early DNA methylation alterations at ankyrin 1 (ANK1), disco-interacting protein 2 (DIP2A), rhomboid family member 2 (RHBDF2), ribosomal protein L13 (RPL13), SERPINF1 and SERPINF2 are connected to a network of known AD susceptibility genes and may have a role in the onset of AD [116]. In another study, two genes, SORBS3, involved in cell adhesion, and S100A2, a calcium binding protein, have been found to become progressively more methylated with age and their methylation becomes accelerated in patients with AD [95]. However, not all genes implicated in AD pathogenesis are associated with age-related changes in DNA methylation.…”

“…The consequences of such distortion are a loss of peripheral heterochromatin, rampant nuclear disorganization and nuclear lobulation or blebbing [89,94]. Of note, several proteins involved in maintaining nuclear architecture, such as barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF) [95], inhibitor of growth protein 1 (ING1) [96] and D4Z4 [97], are also frequently lost in progeroid cells. In addition to aberrations in nuclear architecture, HGPS patients display a substantial down regulation of the histone variant γH2AX, an important marker of DNA repair.…”

“…Notably, the 50-amino acids deletion that characterizes progerin does not interfere with progerin-BAF binding. Binding of BAF to progerin as well as to LA and prelamin A result in loss of BAF cytoplasmic pool, and in its partial dysfunction probably due to loss of BAF interactions with the chromatin-organizing protein RBBP4 (Capanni et al, 2010). Interestingly, a recessive mutation in BAF causes segmental premature-aging syndrome that resembles HGPS but lacks atherosclerosis (Puente et al, 2011).…”
