Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder with unclear molecular mechanisms. Heterozygous protein-truncating variants of DNAJC7, which encode a cochaperone involved in Hsp70/90-mediated protein quality control, are potential risk factors for ALS. However, the neuropathological consequences of heterozygous DNAJC7 mutations are unclear. We aimed to clarify the molecular and...
