Examples of these are Ataxia teleangiectatica—caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the ATAXIA TELEANGIECTASIA MUTATED (ATM) gene—or Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)—caused, among others, by autosomal dominant mutations within the FUSED IN SARCOMA (FUS) gene. This evidence concerns the gene FUS and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
