    Summary
    This gene encodes a protein component of the nuclear lamina, which provides a structural framework for the nuclear envelope. Defects in this gene were found to cause abnormalities in the shape of neurons. This locus represents one of two B-type lamin genes that may be partially, but not entirely, functionally redundant in neuronal development. Loss of both B-type lamin genes in keratinocytes results in ichthyosis and a skin barrier defect leading to dehydration. Alternative transcriptional initiation and splicing results in multiple transcript variants and protein isoforms, including an isoform with a shorter N-terminal rod domain that may function in nuclear envelope remodeling during spermatogenesis. A related pseudogene is found on chromosome 5. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2017]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

    1. NM_001347140.1 → NP_001334069.1  lamin-B2 isoform 2

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks multiple 5' coding exons and contains an alternate 5' UTR and 5' coding region, and initiates translation at an alternate start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (2, also known as lamin B3) has a distinct N-terminus and is shorter than isoform 1. This isoform is thought to function in spermatogenesis.
