Arginine-rich C9ORF72 ALS Proteins Stall Ribosomes in a Manner Distinct From a Canonical Ribosome-Associated Quality Control Substrate
2022-02-10
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Hexanucleotide expansion mutations in C9ORF72 are a cause of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. We previously reported that long arginine-rich dipeptide repeats (DPR), mimicking abnormal proteins expressed from the hexanucleotide expansion, caused translation stalling when expressed in cell culture models. Whether this stalling provides a mechanism of pathogenicity remains to be determined...
