Abstract:Sigmar1 is a widely expressed, multitasking molecular chaperone protein playing functional roles in several cellular processes. Mutations in the Sigmar1 gene have been reported to associate with several motor neuropathies, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, distal hereditary motor neuropathy, silver-like syndrome, and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. All these human mutations associated with motor neuropathies show strong manifestation in skeletal muscle with phenotypes like muscle wasting and atrophy.… Show more
