Results: Expression of a highly aggregate prone FUS variant in transgenic mice causes proteinopathy and severe motor phenotype. Conclusion: Aggregation of FUS is sufficient to recapitulate motor pathology typical for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Significance: Understanding the role of protein aggregation in the development of human neurodegenerative diseases is crucial for designing efficient therapeutic approaches. © 2013 by The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Inc. | Source Title: | Journal of Biological Chemistry | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/180783 | ISSN: | 0021-9258 | DOI: | 10.1074/jbc.M113.492017 | Rights: | Attribution 4.0 International |
