Abstract excerpt
VCP/p97/Cdc48 is a hexameric ring-shaped AAA ATPase that participates in a wide variety of cellular functions. VCP is a very abundant protein in essentially all types of cells and is highly conserved among eukaryotes. To date, 19 different single amino acid-substitutions in VCP have been reported to cause IBMPFD (inclusion body myopathy associated with Paget disease of bone and frontotemporal dementia), an...
