Abstract: Abstract Lamin-associated proteins (LAP) comprise a group of polypeptides localized at the inner nuclear membrane which interact stably with nuclear lamins. The three lamin-associated proteins that have been characterized in detail, LAP1, LAP2, and LBR, are all integral membrane proteins, and have potential roles in the attachment of nuclear lamins and/or chromatin to the inner nuclear membrane.1 Another integral membrane protein, emerin, has recently been demonstrated to be a LAP.24
