An evaluation of a SVA retrotransposon in the FUS promoter as a transcriptional regulator and its association to ALS.

An evaluation of a SVA retrotransposon in the FUS promoter as a transcriptional regulator and its association to ALS.

Genetic mutations of FUS have been linked to many diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration. A primate specific and polymorphic retrotransposon of the SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA) family is present upstream of the FUS gene. Here we have demonstrated that thi...
