Structural Diversity of Sense and Antisense RNA Hexanucleotide Repeats Associated with ALS and FTLD
The hexanucleotide expansion GGGGCC located in <i>C9orf72</i> gene represents the most common genetic cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar dementia (FTLD). Since the discovery one of the non-exclusive mechanisms of expanded hexanucleotide G<sub>4<...
