Abstract

Fused in Sarcoma (FUS) gene encodes FUS RNA binding protein, a multifunctional protein component of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein complex, which is involved in pre-mRNA splicing and the export of fully processed mRNA to the cytoplasm, and it has been implicated in regulation of gene expression, maintenance of genomic integrity and mRNA/microRNA processing. FUS gene mutations result in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Liposarcoma. This heterozygous FUS-Q290X knock in hESC line will be a valuable tool to investigate the disease mechanisms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Liposarcoma.
