C9orf72 repeat RNA and dipeptide-repeat toxicity in ALS/FTD
🧪 Overview
C9orf72 hexanucleotide repeat expansion produces repeat RNA foci and RAN-translated dipeptide-repeat proteins that disrupt nucleocytoplasmic transport, translation, stress granules, and neuronal survival. The strongest program should not be DPR-only; it should separately interrogate sense RNA, antisense RNA, DPRs, and C9orf72 haploinsufficiency.
