ATP biphasically modulates LLPS of TDP-43 PLD by specifically binding arginine residues
Dang Mei et al. use NMR and microscopy approaches to examine how ATP impacts the liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of prion-like domains in TDP-43, a RNA-binding protein that is implicated in ALS and other neurological disorders. Their results suggest that ATP specifically binds to a subset of T...

Sumario: | Dang Mei et al. use NMR and microscopy approaches to examine how ATP impacts the liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of prion-like domains in TDP-43, a RNA-binding protein that is implicated in ALS and other neurological disorders. Their results suggest that ATP specifically binds to a subset of TDP-43 arginine residues at a particular molar ratio to modulate LLPS, and provides insight into how ATP affects the LLPS of biomolecular systems. |
