Neurodegeneration-associated TDP-43 Interacts with Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP)/Staufen (STAU1) and Regulates SIRT1 Expression in Neuronal Cells

Abstract excerpt

Despite the identification of the 43 kDa transactive response DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) as a major pathological signatory protein in a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases, the mechanistic role of TDP-43 in neurodegenerative disorders is still poorly understood. Here, we report that TDP-43 is physically associated with fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) and Staufen (STAU1) to form a functional...
