Accumulation of mutant neuroserpin precedes development of clinical symptoms in familial encephalopathy with neuroserpin inclusion bodies.

Abstract excerpt

Intracellular protein deposition due to aggregation caused by conformational alteration is the hallmark of a number of neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease, tauopathies, Huntington's disease, and familial encephalopathy with neuroserpin inclusion bodies. The latter is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by point mutations in neuroserpin resulting in its destabilization. Mutant neuroserpin...
