A GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat expansion within the C9orf72 gene is most common genetic cause of both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia. Sense antisense repeat-containing transcripts undergo repeat-associated non-AUG-initiated translation to produce five dipeptide proteins (DPRs). The polyGR polyPR DPRs are extremely toxic when expressed in Drosophila neurons. To determine mechanism that mediates this toxicity, we purified from brain used mass spectrometry identify...
