Abstract excerpt
In frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, the RNA-binding protein TDP-43 is depleted from the nucleus of neurons in the brain and spinal cord. A key function of TDP-43 has emerged as a repressor of cryptic exon inclusion during pre-mRNA splicing, but a role for TDP-43 in other RNA-processing events remains unresolved. Here we show that loss of TDP-43 from neuronal nuclei of human brain and...
