Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens when Ca2+ is buffered in the nucleus of SKHep1 cells, LGMN mRNA is decreased by 97%, in part by a transcriptional mechanism, and decreased expression at the protein level is observed by immunoblot and immunofluorescence down

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction knockdown of LGMN by siRNA decreases proliferation of SKHep1 cells by 50% as measured both by BrdU uptake and mitotic index, although an inhibitor of LGMN activity does not affect BrdU incorporation. A significant reduction in the fraction of cells in G2/M phase is seen. This is associated with increases in the expression of cyclins A and E Homo sapiens
physiological function nuclear Ca2+ signals regulate cell proliferation in part through the modulation ofLGMN expression Homo sapiens
