“…Human emerin binds proteins that are crucial for centrosome positioning and nuclear envelope structure (SUN1, SUN2, and nesprins) (Haque et al, 2010;Salpingidou et al, 2007) and influences actin cytoskeletal dynamics (Chang et al, 2013;Ho et al, 2013;Holaska et al, 2004). Emerin activates HDAC3, inhibits b-catenin and LMO7 (Berk et al, 2013b;Demmerle et al, 2012;Holaska et al, 2006;Markiewicz et al, 2006), helps 'tether' silent chromatin (Amendola and van Steensel, 2014), and is required to activate force-responsive genes ('mechano-transduction signaling') (Lammerding et al, 2005).…”
