It may mediate the interaction between chromatin and lamin B. Mutations of this gene has been associated with autosomal recessive HEM/Greenberg skeletal dysplasia.
Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified.
[7] There is evidence tying it to Greenberg dysplasia[8] and Pelger-Huet anomaly.
[10] LBR also interacts with long non-coding RNA XIST in mouse cells and potentially assist the spreading XIST across X chromosome in differentiating female embryonic stem cells,[11] but it might be redundant for correct XCI in vivo.
