Knockdown of transactive response DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) downregulates histone deacetylase 6.
TDP-43 is an RNA/DNA-binding protein implicated in transcriptional repression and mRNA processing. Inclusions of TDP-43 are hallmarks of frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Besides aggregation of TDP-43, loss of nuclear localization is observed in disease. To identify relevant targets of TDP-43, we performed expression profiling. Thereby, histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) dow...
متن کاملHeat Shock-induced Phosphorylation of TAR DNA-binding Protein 43 (TDP-43) by MAPK/ERK Kinase Regulates TDP-43 Function.
TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) is a highly conserved and essential DNA- and RNA-binding protein that controls gene expression through RNA processing, in particular, regulation of splicing. Intracellular aggregation of TDP-43 is a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and ubiquitin-positive frontotemporal lobar degeneration. This TDP-43 pathology is also present in other types of neurodege...
متن کاملLack of TAR-DNA binding protein-43 (TDP-43) pathology in human prion diseases
AIMS TAR-DNA binding protein-43 (TDP-43) is the major ubiquitinated protein in the aggregates in frontotemporal dementia with ubiquitin-positive, tau-negative inclusions and motor neurone disease. Abnormal TDP-43 immunoreactivity has also been described in Alzheimer's disease, Lewy body diseases and Guam parkinsonism-dementia complex. We therefore aimed to determine whether there is TDP-43 path...
متن کاملTar DNA-binding protein-43 (TDP-43) regulates axon growth in vitro and in vivo☆
Intracellular inclusions of the TAR-DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43) have been reported in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD-TDP). Rare mutations in TARDBP have been linked to both ALS and FTD-TDP suggesting that TDP-43 dysfunction is mechanistic in causing disease. TDP-43 is a predominantly nuclear protein with roles in regulating RNA transcription, splicing, ...
متن کاملNeurodegeneration: A Leg Up on TDP-43
TDP-43 is a key disease protein for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis but how it drives motor neuron degeneration remains unresolved. A new study has modeled TDP-43 age-dependent axonal death in the Drosophila leg and used a powerful forward genetic screen to identify three novel suppressor genes.
