Genetically distinct neurodegenerative proteinopathies engage overlapping proteostasis components

Neurodegenerative proteinopathies are defined by distinct proteins whose folding, trafficking and clearance depend on shared proteostasis machinery. Whether these disorders engage common components or only common processes has been unresolved. We mapped 16 disease proteins from 12 disorders onto a fixed 990-protein proteostasis network. Across the 12 disorders, the neighborhoods of these proteins…
