GlossaryLMNA gene

provides instructions for making proteins crucial for cell nucleus structure

The LMNA gene, also known as the Lamin A/C gene, provides instructions for making proteins called lamin A and lamin C, which are crucial for maintaining the structure and function of the cell nucleus. Mutations in this gene can lead to a variety of disorders, including certain types of muscular dystrophy, cardiomyopathy, and progeria, a condition that causes accelerated aging.
