High impact information on Tardbp

  • Taken together, our results demonstrate that 5'-GTGTGT motifs on the complementary strand are required to prevent premature expression of SP-10 during spermatogenesis and implicate TDP-43 as the putative regulatory factor [1].
  • Further, Northern analysis and immunohistochemistry of mouse testis showed the presence of TDP-43 in cell-types where the SP-10 gene remains repressed [1].
  • With DNA transfection assay, we have established the importance of the glycine-rich domain for the exon-skipping activity of TDP-43 [2].
  • Interestingly, combined database analysis and cDNA cloning have demonstrated that the primary transcript of the mammalian TDP genes undergoes alternative splicing to generate 11 mRNAs, including the one encoding TDP-43 [2].
