“…The Aggregation-Prone C-Terminal Domain (CTD, Amino Acids 260-414) TDP-43 CTD is the site of about 50 disease-linked mutations (Mackenzie and Rademakers, 2008) as well as most of the phosphorylation sites (Figure 1), and has thus been examined extensively, but due to its disordered nature, all structural studies of the CTD have been of fragments. The TDP-43 CTD has been shown to be required for TDP-43 splicing activity (Ayala et al, 2005;Freibaum et al, 2010;Conicella et al, 2016), including autoregulation (Ayala et al, 2011), and is the site of interaction with several protein partners such as UBQLN2 (Cassel and Reitz, 2013), FMRP (Majumder et al, 2016) and hnRNP (Buratti et al, 2005;D'Ambrogio et al, 2009).…”
