Abstract
TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) haploinsufficiency causes both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). TBK1 is an IKK-related serine/threonine kinase and primarily known for its involvement in inflammation and autophagy. In particular, TBK1 phosphorylates several autophagy adaptor proteins, including SQSTM1/p62, optineurin, and NDP52. However, other phosphorylation substrates of TBK1 are largely unknown.
