Notes Lamin B Receptor (LBR) is a polytopic inner nuclear membrane protein. Its nucleoplasmic domain interacts with components of the nuclear lamina as well as with chromatin, via HP1 (1, 2, 3). LBR also exhibits C14 sterol reductase activity (4). Deficiency of LBR in humans results in Pelget-Huët anomaly featuring hypolobulated granulocyte nuclei (5). Homozygous loss of LBR causes Greenberg skeletal dysplasia a fetal lethal disorder associated with defective cholesterol metabolism (6).
