CLN6 (Ceroid Lipofuscinosis, Neuronal, 6) is a 311-amino acid protein spanning the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Mutations in CLN6 are linked to CLN6 disease, a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder categorized into the neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses.

Batten disease is a family of rare, fatal, neuropediatric diseases presenting with memory/learning decline, blindness, and loss of motor function. Recently, we reported the use of an AAV9-mediated gene therapy that prevents disease progression in a mouse

Identification of CLN6 as a molecular entity of endoplasmic reticulum-driven anti-aggregate activity [PDF]
αB-crystallin (αBC) is a small heat shock protein. Mutations in the αBC gene are linked to α-crystallinopathy, a hereditary myopathy histologically characterized by intracellular accumulation of protein aggregates. The disease-causing R120G αBC mutant, harboring an arginine-to-glycine replacement at position 120, is an aggregate-prone protein.

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) are a group of autosomal recessive neurogenetic disorders caused by mutations in 14 different genes. CLN6 disease manifests as variant late-infantile NCL (vLINCL) or as an adult variant.
