Biological Activity

EMD encodes a serine-rich nuclear membrane protein named emerin th at belongs to the nuclear lamina-associated protein family. Emerin is involved in the formation of actin-based cortical network at the nuclear inner membrane. It regulates signalling pathways by interacting with β-catenin (transcription coactivator) and controlling its flux into the nucleus. It is necessary for HIV-1 infection in the chromatin engagement by viral cDNA before integration. It is involved in the linkage of centrosome to the outer nuclear membrane.
