Effects of Alexander disease–associated mutations on the assembly and organization of GFAP intermediate filaments
Abstract
The effects of the GFAP rod end mutations are dominant, changing the assembly process in a way that promotes GFAP aggregation and decreases GFAP solubility. Using Alexander disease brain tissues, clinically relevant evidence is provided that links GFAP assembly defects to disease pathology at the tissue level.
