## Mechanistic Overview VCP/p97 ATPase mutations impair extraction of ubiquitinated autophagy substrates, causing proteasome-autophagy flux obstruction starts from the claim that modulating VCP within the disease context of neurodegeneration can redirect a disease-relevant process. The original description reads: "## Mechanistic Overview VCP/p97 ATPase mutations impair extraction of ubiquitinated autophagy substrates, causing proteasome-autophagy flux obstruction starts from the claim that modul

## Mechanistic Overview OPTN/TBK1 mutations create selective vulnerability by blocking PINK1-Parkin-independent mitophagy in lower motor neurons starts from the claim that modulating OPTN within the disease context of neurodegeneration can redirect a disease-relevant process. The original description reads: "## Mechanistic Overview OPTN/TBK1 mutations create selective vulnerability by blocking PINK1-Parkin-independent mitophagy in lower motor neurons starts from the claim that modulating OPTN wi
