LMNB2 encodes lamin B2 (620 aa). Lamins are intermediate filament proteins that assemble into a filamentous meshwork, and which constitute the major components of the nuclear lamina, a fibrous layer on the nucleoplasmic side of the inner nuclear membrane. Highest expression in Cells EBV-transformed lymphocytes (104.6 TPM) and Cells Cultured fibroblasts (96.1 TPM).
Microcephaly 27, primary, autosomal dominant is associated with mutations in the LMNB2 gene on chromosome 19.
LMNB2 is classified as a druggable target with score 10.4.
Genetic testing for LMNB2 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 4 always present features, 5 common features.
No clinical trials have been registered for microcephaly 27, primary, autosomal dominant.
2 publications have been identified in PubMed for microcephaly 27, primary, autosomal dominant. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (50%) and Basic Science / Preclinical (50%).
