Although there is a positive trend between chromosome size and the LEM-2 occupancy (that is, proportion of LEM-2 binding region per chromosome) for the autosomes, the second-largest chromosome is the X, which had the lowest LEM-2 occupancy.

Caenorhabditis elegans chromosome arms are anchored to the nuclear membrane via discontinuous association with LEM-2.
