Abstract excerpt
Mysteriously neurons maintain ATP concentrations of ~3 mM but whether ATP modulates TDP-43 LLPS remains completely unexplored. Here we characterized the effect of ATP on LLPS of TDP-43 PLD and seven mutants by DIC and NMR. The results revealed: 1) ATP induces and subsequently dissolves LLPS of TDP-43 PLD by specifically binding Arg saturated at 1:100. 2) ATP modifies the conformation-specific electrostatic...
