LEM (Lap2/Emerin/Man1) domain found in LEM domain-containing protein 2 (LEM2) This CD corresponds to the LEM domain that is responsible for the interaction with chromatin protein barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF). LEM2, also termed LEMD2, is a novel Man1-related ubiquitously expressed inner nuclear membrane protein required for normal nuclear envelope morphology. Association with lamin A is required for its proper nuclear envelope localization. It also binds to lamin C and plays an important role in the organization of lamin A/C complexes. LEM2 contains an N-terminal LEM domain, two putative transmembrane domains and a MAN1-Src1p C-terminal (MSC) domain, but lacks the Man1-specific C-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM).
