  1. TDP-43 interacts with mitochondrial proteins critical for mitophagy and mitochondrial dynamics

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Neuroscience letters 2018-04-30 Genetics

    Transactive response DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa (TDP-43) functions as a heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein and is the major pathological protein in frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/motor neuron disease (ALS/MND).

  2. A critical function for beta-amyloid precursor protein in neuronal migration revealed by in utero RNA interference

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience 2007-12-01 Risk genes beyond APOE

    Physiological processing of the beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) generates amyloid beta-protein, which can assemble into oligomers that mediate synaptic failure in Alzheimer's disease.
