RNA regulates repeat-associated non-AUG (RAN) translation initiation in <i>C9orf72</i> FTD/ALS

2025-10-09

Abstract excerpt

Repeat-associated non-AUG (RAN) translation synthesizes protein in the absence of a cognate AUG start codon 1,2 In frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a GGGGCC (G 4 C 2 ) repeat expansion in an intron of C9orf72 leads to synthesis of neurotoxic dipeptide-repeat proteins, underscoring the need to understand the mechanism of C9orf72 RAN translation 1-5 . RNA sequence and structure have b...
