  • TBK1 mutations are a significant genetic link in ALS and FTD.
  • TBK1 is a multifunctional kinase that regulates the autophagy-lysosome pathway.
  • The review explores how TBK1 mutations disrupt autophagy processes.
  • Mutations range from truncating variants to domain-specific missense mutations.
  • The study highlights impaired autophagy and proteostatic failure in ALS/FTD.
