  • Tool name: GST-3X-TDP43deltaC Vector
  • Alternate name: TARDBP, TAR DNA Binding Protein, TDP-43, TAR DNA-Binding Protein 43, ALS10
  • Research fields: Genetics;Neurobiology;Microbiology
  • Tool sub type: pGEX
  • Backbone size without insert: 4900
  • Bacterial resistance: Ampicillin
  • Description: Concentration 1mg/ml
  • Additional notes: The TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) is a highly conserved heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) that controls the transcription, splicing and RNA stability of specific genes. The protein associates with single-stranded RNA and DNA sequences, and exhibits remarkable specificity for UG/TG dinucleotide repeats. Regulation of the human low-molecular-weight neurofilament (hNFL) by TDP-43 has also been reported to occur through 3′ UTR recruitment. TDP-43 is the major protein in inclusions from patients suffering from frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) with ubiquitin-positive inclusions and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This is a mutant version of TDP-43 that lacks the entire C-terminal domain, can bind RNA and does not aggregate as easily as the wild-type protein.
