Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is associated with the misfolding of hSOD1 and C71G-hPFN1, however, the exact mechanism responsible for ALS remains poorly understood. Here, NMR spectroscopy reveals that ATP can induce the folding of hSOD1 and C71G-hPFN1, inhibiting protein aggregation and enhancing their thermodynamic stability.
