Motor neuron disease-associated loss of nuclear TDP-43 is linked to DNA double-strand break repair defects
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating, motor neuron degenerative disease without any cure to date. About 95% of ALS patients feature abnormalities in the RNA/DNA binding protein TDP-43, involving its nucleus-cytoplasmic mislocalization in spinal motor neurons. How TDP-43 pathology triggers neuronal apoptosis remains unclear. Here, we report that TDP-43 participates in the DNA damage response and its nuclear clearance in motor neurons causes DNA double-strand break repair defects in ALS. Our findings uncover a link between TDP-43 pathology and impaired DNA repair, and suggest potential avenues for DNA repair-targeted therapies for TDP-43–ALS.

TDP-43 is directly involved in NHEJ through its recruitment and stabilization of the XRCC4-LIG4 complex at DSBs.
“Recently, TDP‐43 was also found to be directly involved in NHEJ through its recruitment and stabilization of the XRCC4‐LIG4 complex at DSBs (Guerrero et al, 2019; Mitra et al, 2019).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
