Abstract excerpt
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease with multiple genetic causes. Given the strong evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction in ALS, this study aimed to identify genetic contributors to ALS by focusing on genes involved in mitochondrial function. Whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing data from 1,034 individuals with ALS were analyzed using two distinct computational tools, which...
