ALS caused by mutations of this gene affect diverse ethnicities. The average age of onset is age 43 with a survival time of about 33-41 months. ALS resulting from this gene mutation is most commonly cervical with severe lower motor neuron loss in the spinal cord and less in the brainstem. RNA metabolism is also affected. This mutation accounts for about 3-5% of familial ALS cases.
The initial symptoms of ALS can be quite varied in different people. One person may have trouble grasping a pen or lifting a coffee cup, while another person may experience a change in vocal pitch when speaking. ALS is typically a disease that involves a gradual onset. The rate at which ALS progresses can be quite variable from one person to another. Although the mean survival time with ALS is three to five years, many people live five, 10 or more years. Symptoms can begin in the muscles that control speech and swallowing or in the hands, arms, legs or feet.
