Differential toxicity and localization of arginine-rich C9ORF72 dipeptide repeat proteins depend on de-clustering of positive charges

Summary: Arginine-rich dipeptide repeat proteins (R-DPRs), poly(PR) and poly(GR), translated from the hexanucleotide repeat expansion in the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)-causative C9ORF72 gene, contribute significantly to pathogenesis of ALS. Although both R-DPRs share many similarities, ther...
