Futsch/MAP1B mRNA Is a Translational Target of TDP-43 and Is Neuroprotective in a<i>Drosophila</i>Model of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
26 Nov 2014
Abstract excerpt
TDP-43 is an RNA-binding protein linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) that is known to regulate the splicing, transport, and storage of specific mRNAs into stress granules. Although TDP-43 has been shown to interact with translation factors, its role in protein synthesis remains unclear, and no in vivo translation targets have been reported to date. Here we provide evidence that TDP-43 associates with...
