Sangavi Sivagnanasundram (Melbourne Health)

Green List (high evidence)

PMID: 19251628
In vitro functional assay was conducted that showed an increase in cytoplasmic localisation of the mutant proteins.
> 20 individuals with ALS clinical phenotypes and FUS mutations with multiple cases showing lower motor neuron loss in the spinal cord and in brain stem to a lesser degree.

PMID: 19251627
3 unrelated families with FUS mutations and a diagnosis of ALS
