Myoblasts were fixed with methanol (−20 °C). As a marker for proliferation Ki-67 (Thermo Scientific, RM-9106-S0), antibody was used [17] (link). Relocalization from the centrosome to the nuclear envelope of PCM1 has been found to be an early and reliable marker of differentiation [18] (link) and so was used to assess myoblast differentiation. For emerin immunofluorescence staining of myoblasts and biopsy sections MANEM1 antibody was used which recognizes emerin amino acids 89–96 (GYNDDYYE) [19] (link). For stainings with leucocyte type-specific antibodies the same fluorescently conjugated antibody set that was used for flow cytometry was employed; however, because the laser lines of the flow cytometer did not match the filter sets of the microscope, secondary antibodies were also used. All secondary antibodies were Alexafluor conjugated and generated in donkey with minimal species cross-reactivity. DNA was visualized with DAPI (4,6-diamidino-2 phenylindole, dihydrochloride). To determine if the small fragment encoded by the mutant allele is stably expressed, Western blot analysis optimized for small MW proteins was performed using Millipore Immobilon® PSQ Transfer Membranes and following the manufacturer's instructions. The blot was probed with monoclonal antibody MANEM14 against emerin amino acids 7–14 (LSDTELTT) [19] (link).

After washing, the collected pPGCLCs were lysed in RIPA lysis solution (Beyotime, P00113B) for 20 min on ice with vortexing. The extracted proteins were denatured by immersing in boiling water for 5 min and collected by centrifugation at 12 000 rpm for 3 min. The proteins were then separated by sodium dodecyl sulphate‐PAGE (SDS‐PAGE) and the proteins were electrophoretically transferred to poly‐vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes (immobilon‐PSQ transfer membranes, Millipore, ISEQ00010, USA) with 200 mA for 150 min. After being blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin (BSA, Solarbio, A8020), the membranes were blocked with corresponding primary antibodies (Table S1) overnight. Following washes with TBST, membranes were incubated with secondary antibodies for 2 h (Table S1). Finally, the protein signalling was measured using a BeyoECL plus kit (Beyotime, P0018). GAPDH was selected as the housekeeping protein, and the data were analysed by AlphaView Sa Software (ProteinSimple, San Jose, CA, USA). The greyscales of the target proteins in different samples were analysed using the same area, and the greyscales of the target proteins were divided by that of the greyscales of the internal parameters to correct the errors. All the results were analysed without overexposure.
