Figure Legend Snippet: ( a ) 10R UV crosslinked to U87 nuclear extract (NE) and digested with RNAse A (0.5 ug) (lane 3), RNAse T1 (10U) (lane 4), both (0.5ug RNAse A/10U RNAse T1) (lane 5), or nothing (lane 2), and separated by 10% SDS-PAGE. ( b ) 0.1 pmoles of 10R in water (lanes 1, 2 and 4) or 200 mM KCl and 500 μM pyridostatin (PDS) (lanes 3 and 5), IPed with BG4 antibody (lanes 4 and 5) or beads alone (lanes 2 and 3). Products were separated by 10% SDS-PAGE (top) and by 8M Urea/10% PAGE (bottom). ( c ) Representative G-Q folding conformations of 10 repeats of GGGGCC RNA. Numbers indicate G-tracts that participate in GQs or linear fragments. The right most conformation represents 8 consecutive G-tracts forming an octamer. Beneath, a depiction of one quartet, with the N7 (replaced with C in 7-deaza GTP) position surrounded by red dashed oval ( d ) 10R (lanes 1 and 3) and 10R-7dG (lanes 2 and 4) heated to 95°C (lanes 3 and 4) or left on ice (lanes 1 and 2), crosslinked to NE, digested with RNAse A/T1 (.5 ug/10U) and separated by 10% SDS-PAGE. ( e ) 10R-G (lanes 1, 3, 5 and 7) and 10R-G7dG (lanes 2, 4, 6 and 8) heated to 95°C in water (lanes 5 and 6) or 100 mM KCl (lanes 7 and 8) or left on ice (lanes 3 and 4), crosslinked to NE, digested with RNAse A/T1 (0.5 μg/10 U) and separated by 10% SDS-PAGE. This gel was cropped to remove two intervening lanes between lanes 6 and 7. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.17820.002

Figure Legend Snippet: Dark exposure of (top) depicting recovery of 10R in water (lane 4) using the BG4 antibody. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.17820.003
Techniques Used:
Figure Legend Snippet: Representative nonALS and C9ALS fibroblasts ( a ) and astrocytes ( b ) showing the projection created by 'BG4 Count' that represents all stained area above the determined threshold (0.1) in red, with areas of particularly dense staining in white. Inset depicts source image showing only the red (BG4-FLAG) channel. ( c ) Number of foci and total stained area ( d ) as fold change over the average number of foci, or area, respectively, per control cell for C9 fibroblasts (n replicates = 16), control fibroblasts (n replicates = 12), C9 astrocytes (n replicates = 3), and control astrocytes (n replicates = 3) (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001). Error bars are plotted to SEM. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.17820.006

( g ) Nuclear hnRNP H/BG4 inclusion in C9 patient fibroblasts. ( h ) C9 patient fibroblasts with cytoplasmic hnRNP H/BG4 foci in DAPI-positive cytoplasm. ( i ) Summary of all fibroblasts counted and the number of colocalization event. All objects are indicated with arrow or dashed box ( c ), and all scale bars = 3 microns with the exception of ( h ), 10 microns. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.17820.009
