TDP-43 α-helical structure tunes liquid-liquid phase separation and function

2019-05-18

Abstract excerpt

Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is involved in the formation of membraneless organelles (MLOs) associated with RNA processing. Present in several MLOs, TDP-43 undergoes LLPS and is linked to the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). While some disease variants of TDP-43 disrupt self-interaction and function, here we show that designed single mutations can enhance TDP-43 assembly and function v...
