In the neurodegenerative disorders amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), expansion of the G4C2 hexanucleotide repeat in the gene C9orf72 is a most common known cause of the disease. Here we use atomic force microscopy (AFM) and gel electrophoresis to visualize the fo...
