Abstract: Cytoplasmic aggregation of transactive response DNA‐binding protein 43 (TDP‐43) is a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and occurs in 57% of Alzheimer's disease (AD) cases. TDP‐43 regulates RNA processing, including cryptic exon splicing. Here,… read more here.

Abstract: The X-linked recessive degenerative disease dystrophinopathy results from variants in the DMD gene. Given the large size and complexity of the DMD gene, molecular diagnosis for all dystrophinopathies remains challenging. Here we identified two cryptic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.3002028
Abstract: A major function of TAR DNA-binding protein-43 (TDP-43) is to repress the inclusion of cryptic exons during RNA splicing. One of these cryptic exons is in UNC13A, a genetic risk factor for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis… read more here.
