Autosomal dominant mutations of the RNA/DNA binding protein FUS are linked to familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS); however, it is not clear how cause neurodegeneration. Using transgenic mice expressing a common FALS-associated mutation (FUS-R521C mice), we found that mutant proteins formed stable complex with WT and interfered normal interactions between histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1). Consequently, FUS-R521C exhibited evidence DNA damage as well profound dendritic synaptic...
