ALS-FUS mutation affects the activities of HuD/ELAVL4 and FMRP leading to axon phenotypes in motoneurons
2020-08-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Mutations in the RNA-binding protein (RBPs) FUS have been genetically associated with the motoneuron disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Using both human induced pluripotent stem cells and mouse models, we found that FUS-ALS causative mutations affect the activity of two relevant RBPs with important roles in neuronal RNA metabolism: HuD/ELAVL4 and FMRP. Mechanistically, mutant FUS leads...
