Heterozygous mutations in the TBK1 gene can cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The majority of TBK1-ALS/FTD patients carry deleterious loss-of-expression mutations, it is still unclear which function leads to neurodegeneration. We investigated impact pathogenic missense variant p.E696K, does not abolish protein expression, but a selective loss binding autophagy adaptor substrate optineurin. Using organelle-specific proteomics, we found that knock-in...
