Considering the mechanism by which droplets of ALS-FTD-associated SQSTM1/p62 mutants cause pathology

Large numbers of point mutations in SQSTM1/p62 have been identified in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal degeneration (FTD). SQSTM1 interacts with ubiquitinated proteins, undergoing liquid-liquid phase separation, and the resulting SQSTM1-droplets are degraded by macroautophagy/...
