TDP-43 (TAR DNA binding protein) belongs to the family of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs), that binds single stranded RNA. TDP-43 has been implicated in the transcription regulation of HIV. TDP-43 is the major ubiquinated component of cytoplasmic inclusions in frontotemporal lobe degeneration subtype FTLD-U and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). TDP-43 is predominantly localized to the nucleus.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide containing phosphorylated Ser410 of human TDP-43, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding sequence is identical in mouse TDP-43.
Application
Anti-phospho-TDP-43 (pSer410) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Pathological TDP-43 forms abnormal inclusions in neuronal perikarya and neurites. Several pathogenic TDP-43 mutations have been identified in familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Transactive response binding protein-43 (TDP-43) cytoplasmic neuronal and glial aggregates (pathologic TDP-43) have been described in multiple brain diseases. We describe the associations between neuropathologically confirmed TDP-43 and cognition in two population-based cohorts: the Nun Study (NS) and the Honolulu-Asia
Primary age-related tauopathy (PART) is characterized by tau neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) in the absence of amyloid plaque pathology. In the present study, we analyzed the distribution patterns of phosphorylated 43-kDa TAR DNA-binding protein (pTDP-43) in the brains of patients with
Abnormal phosphorylation of Ser409/410 of TDP-43 in FTLD-U and ALS
The cytoplasmic accumulation of the nuclear TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) is a pathologic hallmark in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, frontotemporal lobar degeneration, and other neurological disorders. However, most transgenic TDP-43 rodent models show predominant nuclear distribution of TDP-43 in the

Ubiquitin-positive, tau- and alpha-synuclein-negative inclusions are hallmarks of frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin-positive inclusions and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Although the identity of the ubiquitinated protein specific to either disorder was unknown, we showed that TDP-43 is the major disease protein
