Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionemr-1 gene encodes a homolog of the human integral nuclear membrane protein emerin ; EMR-1 belongs to a family of proteins sharing the LEM-domain (LAP2-Emerin-MAN1 domain) that are generally conserved in metazoa and bind to lamin; EMR-1, along with another LEM-domain protein, LEM-2 is required for larval development, normal life-span, nuclear envelope and chromatin organization, chromosome segregation and cell division; emr-1 is also required for smooth muscle activity; emr-1 negatively regulates pha-4, the transcription factor required for pharynx identity; EMR-1 protein is found in the nuclear envelopes of all cell types except sperm and at all life stages; EMR-1 binds to lamin/LMN-1; emr-1 mutations also exhibit weak hypersensitivity to DNA damage.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004339

Automated_descriptionEnables lamin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including mitotic cytokinesis; nuclear envelope organization; and response to X-ray. Located in nuclear inner membrane. Used to study Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy. Is an ortholog of human LEMD1 (LEM domain containing 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Disease_relevanceMutations in the human ortholog of emr-1, emerin, cause X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD); Emerin is a nuclear lamina protein and belongs to a family of LEM (LAP2-Emerin-MAN1) domain proteins that include MAN1, LEM2/NET25 and several others; LEM domain proteins bind lamin; mutations in human LMNA/lamin cause several laminopathic diseases including EDMD; much of the knowledge of the organization and assembly of the nuclear lamina has come from studies in elegans; studies in elegans have demonstrated the overlapping roles of emerin and lem-2 in embryogenesis, cell proliferation, lamin and heterochromatin organization; worm emerin and lem-2 are also involved in mitosis, smooth and striated muscle function, lifespan and meiotic progression, pointing to the many underlying processes that may affect disease phenotypes.Homo sapiensPaper_evidenceWBPaper00040268

RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
