Computational and functional characterization of Angiogenin mutations, and correlation with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

The Angiogenin (ANG) gene is frequently mutated in patients suffering from the neurodegenerative disease--amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Most of the ALS-causing mutations in Angiogenin affect either its ribonucleolytic or nuclear translocation activity. Here we report the functional characteri...
