Detailed explanation-1: -We summarize the properties of integral membrane proteins that reside in the inner nuclear membrane, including lamin B receptor (LBR), lamina-associated polypeptide (LAP) 1, LAP2, emerin, MAN1 and nurim. Most of these proteins interact with lamins and chromatin.

Detailed explanation-2: -The nuclear lamina is a multi-protein lattice composed of A-and B-type lamins and their associated proteins. This protein lattice associates with heterochromatin and integral inner nuclear membrane proteins, providing a link between the genome, nucleoskeleton, and cytoskeleton.

Detailed explanation-3: -Abstract. The nuclear lamina is a structure near the inner nuclear membrane and the peripheral chromatin. It is composed of lamins, which are also present in the nuclear interior, and lamin-associated proteins.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lamins A and C are structural proteins called intermediate filament proteins. Intermediate filaments provide stability and strength to cells. Lamins A and C are supporting (scaffolding) components of the nuclear envelope, which is a structure that surrounds the nucleus in cells.
