Diverse expression of selected SMN complex proteins in humans with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and in a transgenic rat model of familial form of the disease.

Diverse expression of selected SMN complex proteins in humans with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and in a transgenic rat model of familial form of the disease.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:There is circumstantial evidence linking sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) cases to a malfunction or deficit of a multimeric SMN complex that scrutinizes cellular RNAs; the core of this complex is survival motor neuron (SMN, or gemin 1) protein.
