“…Several genes within this group, including TARDBP, TIAL1, SIRT1, and PQBP1, which have recently been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases (ALS/FTLD spectrum, SMA, Lewy Body Dementia, Parkinson disease, MR, respectively), are involved in mRNA trafficking, stability, and microRNA biogenesis, associated with various types of RNA granules or involved in protein misfolding (25,26). Silencing of additional genes within these pathways (e.g., G3BP1, TAF15, and SNRPB2) in our shRNA screen displayed different PSA-NCAM phenotypes (Table S5), in line with the interaction and differential regulation of RNA granule components (27).…”
