DesignNote

Prelamin-A/C must be farnesylated before it can be proteolytically processed by CAAX prenyl protease 1 homolog to remove 3 C-terminal and then must be methylated before it can be proteolytically processed to remove 15 C-terminal residues to yield lamin-A/C., UniProt considers prelamin-A the canonical sequence; prelamin-C (572 aa, ~65 kDa) has a different amino acid sequence at residues 567-572 and is missing residues 573-664.
