Abstract excerpt
Aging drives pathological accumulation of proteins such as tau, causing neurodegenerative dementia disorders like Alzheimer's disease. Previously we showed loss of function mutations in the gene encoding the poly(A) RNA binding protein SUT-2/MSUT2 suppress tau-mediated neurotoxicity in C. elegans neurons, cultured human cells, and mouse brain, while loss of PABPN1 had the opposite effect (Wheeler et al., 2019)....
