Answer:

C. Lamin

Explanation:

Lamin is one of the most important proteins that form the nuclear envelope. These fibrous proteins are mostly present in the inner nuclear membrane and have a structural function in the cell.

If this protein is targeted, the nuclear envelope will not be able to reform, which would lead to the death of the cell.
