To rescue the nucleoplasmic lamin A pool, we expressed either myc-tagged WT lamin A or a myc-tagged mutant ΔK32 lamin A. The latter is a lamin variant linked to a severe form of congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) in humans (Quijano-Roy et al., 2008). This evidence concerns the gene MYC and congenital muscular dystrophy.
