C9orf72 Nucleocytoplasmic Transport Rescue for ALS/FTD
🧪 Overview
C9orf72 intronic GGGGCC repeats produce dipeptide repeat proteins and RNA foci that sequester nuclear import factors (TNPO1, RanGAP1), causing cytoplasmic TDP-43 accumulation and nuclear Ran-GTP depletion. Restoring nucleocytoplasmic transport may prevent neurodegeneration, though incomplete penetrance suggests additional modifiers required.
