Rare CYLD Variants in Chinese Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Background: CYLD Lysine 63 Deubiquitinase gene (CYLD) was recently identified to be a novel causative gene for frontal temporal dementia (FTD)-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In the current study, we aimed to (1) systematically screen the mutations of CYLD in a large cohort of Chinese ALS patie...
