Analysis of immune-related loci identifies 48 new susceptibility variants for multiple sclerosis

Ashley Beecham, +206 more
- 01 Nov 2013 - 
TL;DR: This study enhances the catalog of multiple sclerosis risk variants and illustrates the value of fine mapping in the resolution of GWAS signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide Analyses Identify KIF5A as a Novel ALS Gene.

Aude Nicolas, +435 more
- 21 Mar 2018 - 
TL;DR: Interestingly, mutations predominantly in the N-terminal motor domain of KIF5A are causative for two neurodegenerative diseases: hereditary spastic paraplegia and Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exome-wide rare variant analysis identifies TUBA4A mutations associated with familial ALS.

Bradley N. Smith, +64 more
- 22 Oct 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, an exome-wide rare variant burden analysis of 363 index cases with familial ALS (FALS) was performed and the results revealed an excess of patient variants within TUBA4A, the gene encoding the Tubulin, Alpha 4A protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

High frequency of TARDBP gene mutations in Italian patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

TL;DR: This report contributes to the demonstration of the causative role of the TARDBP gene in ALS pathogenesis and indicates that mutations may affect the stability of the protein even in nonneuronal tissues.
