Abstract excerpt
About 20% of all familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) cases are associated with mutations in superoxide dismutase (SOD1), a homodimeric protein. The disease has an autosomal-dominant inheritance pattern. It is, therefore, important to determine whether wild-type and mutant SOD1 subunits self-associate randomly or preferentially. A measure for the extent of bias in subunit association is the coupling...
