Hutchinson–Gilford progeria (HGPS) is a sporadic, autosomal‐dominant premature aging syndrome, caused by a de novo point mutation in the LMNA gene (Dreesen & Stewart, 2011; Eriksson et al., 2003; Kubben & Misteli, 2017; De Sandre‐Giovannoli et al., 2003; Vidak & Foisner, 2016). Here, LMNA is linked to Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
