Abstract excerpt
Ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain mutations of SQSTM1 are an important cause of Paget's disease of bone (PDB), which is a human skeletal disorder characterized by abnormal bone turnover. We previously showed that, when introduced into the full-length SQSTM1 protein, the disease-causing P392L, M404V, G411S, and G425R missense mutations and the E396X truncating mutation (representative of all of the SQSTM1...
