Alu-mediated SPAST deletion impairs golgi zinc transport and reveals a druggable vulnerability
These findings identify a primate-specific cascade linking Alu-mediated genomic rearrangements to zinc dyshomeostasis and Golgi pathology and suggest that dysregulation of the ZnT6–Golgi axis may represent a vulnerability and therapeutic target in structural variant–driven neurodegeneration and possibly in a subset of sporadic cases.
