[PDF][PDF] ALS/FTD mutation-induced phase transition of FUS liquid droplets and reversible hydrogels into irreversible hydrogels impairs RNP granule function

…, E Rees, A Miyashita, AR Costa, RB Dodd, FTS Chan… - Neuron, 2015 - cell.com
The mechanisms by which mutations in FUS and other RNA binding proteins cause ALS and
FTD remain controversial. We propose a model in which low-complexity (LC) domains of …

Protein amyloids develop an intrinsic fluorescence signature during aggregation

Insight into how amyloid β (Aβ) aggregation occurs in vivo is vital for understanding the
molecular pathways that underlie Alzheimer's disease and requires new techniques that provide …

HomoFRET Fluorescence Anisotropy Imaging as a Tool to Study Molecular Self‐Assembly in Live Cells

FTS Chan, CF Kaminski… - …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Many important biological functions, and dysfunctions, involve the self-assembly of molecules.
Two well-characterised examples are the clustering of signalling proteins in cellular …

ALS mutations in FUS cause neuronal dysfunction and death in Caenorhabditis elegans by a dominant gain-of-function mechanism

…, GS Kaminski Schierle, FTS Chan… - Human molecular …, 2012 - academic.oup.com
It is unclear whether mutations in fused in sarcoma (FUS) cause familial amyotrophic lateral
sclerosis via a loss-of-function effect due to titrating FUS from the nucleus or a gain-of-…

A FRET sensor for non‐invasive imaging of amyloid formation in vivo

…, CW Bertoncini, FTS Chan… - …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
The phenomenon of protein misfolding and aggregation is one of the most important topics
in current biomedical research.[1] The failure of proteins to fold correctly, or to remain …
