Here, we demonstrate that ALS/FTD UBQLN2 mutants P497H and P506T inhibit protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi apparatus in neuronal cells.
Analysis of 226 exome-sequenced UK cases of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia identified 2 individuals who harbored a P497H and P506S UBQLN2 mutation, respectively (n = 0.9%).
