Fluorescence in-situ hybridization method reveals that carboxyl-terminal fragments of transactive response DNA-binding protein-43 truncated at the amino acid residue 218 reduce poly(A)+ RNA expression.

Abstract excerpt

Transactive response (TAR) DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) has emerged as an important contributor to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. To understand the association of TDP-43 with complex RNA processing in disease pathogenesis, we performed fluorescence in-situ hybridization using HeLa cells transfected with a series of deleted TDP-43 constructs and investigated the effect of...
