Mutations in Mic14/CHCHD10 have been associated with frontotemporal dementia–amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FTD-ALS) clinical spectrum (Genin et al., 2016), and a founder mutation (p.Gly66Val) in the same gene was identified in Finnish families with late-onset spinal motor neuronopathy (SMAJ) (Penttilä et al., 2015). This evidence concerns the gene CHCHD10 and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
