Lipodystrophic laminopathy: Lamin A mutation relaxes chromatin architecture to impair adipogenesis

The familial partial Dunnigan lipodystrophy, characterized by subcutaneous fat loss, is frequently caused by an R482W mutation in lamin A. In this issue, Oldenburg et al. (2017. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201701043) demonstrate that this mutation impairs the ability of lamin A to repr...

Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201701043) demonstrate that this mutation impairs the ability of lamin A to repress the anti-adipogenic miR-335, providing a potential molecular mechanism for the disease.
