Deskripsi
Intron retention (IR) can increase protein diversity and function, and yet unregulated IR may be detrimental to cellular health. This study shows that aberrant IR occurs in ALS and finds nuclear loss of an RNA-binding protein called SFPQ as a new molecular hallmark in this devastating condition.
