UBQLN2 mutations are not a frequent cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in Ireland.

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in UBQLN2 have been shown to be a cause of dominant X-linked amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Occurrences of mutations in this gene vary across ALS populations. We screened UBQLN2 for mutations in a final cohort of 150 Irish ALS patients. Individuals who were from families with male-to-male transmission or who carried pathogenic hexanucleotide repeat expansions in C9orf72 were excluded. Apart from...
