Table lists gene name (if applicable) and gene ID of all candidates identified to have a similar effect on polyQ- and Tau-induced REPs. Mode of modification is indicated (enhancement (E), suppression (S)). A brief summary of the molecular and biological functions assigned to the identified gene products is listed.
