Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Germinal mono-allelic loss-of-function mutations of NEK1 drive Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) at variable penetrance, presumably through haploinsufficiency. Modeling the ALS-associated Arg812Ter mutation in mice revealed that the resulting truncated Nek1 (Nek1 t ) is aggregation-prone, particularly in alpha-motoneurons (αMNs), and drives canonical ALS symptoms when bi-allelically expresse...
