Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), a progeroid syndrome in children, is caused by mutations in LMNA (the gene for prelamin A and lamin C) that result in the deletion of 50 aa within prelamin A. In normal cells, prelamin A is "CAAX protein" that is farnesylated and then processed further to generate mature lamin A, which is a structural pr...
