NCIt definition : Human LBR wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 1q42.12 and is approximately
27 kb in length. This allele, which encodes delta(14)-sterol reductase LBR protein,
plays a role in lanosterol metabolism and binding to lamin B. Mutations in the gene
are associated with Pelger-Huet anomaly, rhizomelic skeletal dysplasia, Reynolds syndrome
and autosomal recessive hydrops-ectopic calcification-moth-eaten (HEM)/Greenberg skeletal
dysplasia.;
