Gene therapy targeting SARM1 blocks pathological axon …
WebbThe SARM1 protein has a mitochondrial localization signal, an auto-inhibitory N-terminus region consisting of armadillo (ARM )/ HEAT motifs, two sterile alpha motif domains (SAM) responsible for multimerization, and a C-terminal Toll/Interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain that possesses enzymatic activity. [12] Webb1 jan. 2024 · The SARM1 enzyme is the central regulator of axon maintenance that triggers neurons to actively dismantle their axons. We have shown that mutated versions of the SARM1 gene found in some ALS patients can kill neurons and paralyze mice. Here we investigate the role of the SARM1 axon degeneration pathway in ALS in search of a … browning slow sinking feeder
