These results are similar to those of experiments manipulating the protein Atlastin – an ER tubule-binding protein which, when mutated is a cause of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia, discussed in sections “Protein Synthesis Linked to Neurological Disease” and “Protein Maintenance in Disease” (Fink, 2013; Ozdowski et al., 2015). The gene discussed is ATL1; the disease is hereditary spastic paraplegia.
