Functional and dynamic polymerization of the ALS-linked protein TDP-43 antagonizes its pathologic aggregation
TDP-43 aggregation is observed in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Here the authors combine X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance and electron microscopy studies and show that physiological oligomerization of TDP-43 is mediated through its N-terminal domain, which forms functional and dyna...
