Emerin caps the pointed end of actin filaments: evidence for an actin cortical network at the nuclear inner membrane.
X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy is caused by loss of emerin, a LEM-domain protein of the nuclear inner membrane. To better understand emerin function, we used affinity chromatography to purify emerin-binding proteins from nuclear extracts of HeLa cells. Complexes that included actin, alph...
