Description

TOR1AIP1 encodes a nuclear membrane protein that interacts with torsin-1A (TOR1A). It is involved in nuclear envelope integrity, nuclear positioning, and centrosome attachment. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy and dilated cardiomyopathy.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2Y (LGMDR25) Loss-of-function mutations disrupt nuclear envelope integrity, leading to muscle fiber degeneration. ClinVar, OMIM
Dilated cardiomyopathy with muscular dystrophy Defective nuclear membrane stability impairs cardiac and skeletal muscle function. ClinVar, OMIM
Primary dystonia (possible modifier) Altered interaction with TOR1A may influence dystonia pathogenesis. NCBI Gene, OMIM

Protein Summary

TOR1AIP1 (LAP1) is a type II integral membrane protein localized to the inner nuclear membrane. It binds torsin-1A and regulates nuclear envelope dynamics, centrosome attachment, and nuclear movement. Isoforms LAP1B and LAP1C are expressed in muscle and other tissues.
