A protein long studied for its role in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia now appears to serve a second, equally critical function, safeguarding the integrity of human DNA.

A protein tied to ALS and dementia may have a much bigger role in disease than scientists realized. Researchers found that ...
