Genetics of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

1 Sept 1996

Abstract excerpt

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a paralytic disorder caused by degeneration of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. Identification of mutations in the gene for Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) in a subset of ALS families made it possible to develop a transgenic mouse model of ALS and to investigate its pathogenesis. These investigations suggest that mutant SOD1 acts through a toxic gain of function...
