FUS is a DNA/RNA-binding protein that is involved in transcription regulation, RNA transport, and DNA repair60,61, and has been in the focus of many studies in recent years, due to its ability to phase separate, either on its own62 or in complex mixtures with nucleic acids63, and its implications in neurodegenerative diseases and cancer64,65. The gene discussed is FUS; the disease is neurodegenerative disease.
