Metal-deficient aggregates and diminished copper found in cells expressing SOD1 mutations that cause ALS

Disruptions in metal ion homeostasis have been described in association with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) for a number of years but the precise mechanism of involvement is poorly understood. Metal ions are especially important to familial ALS cases caused by mutations in the metalloenzyme cop...
