Also known as TDP-43ALS10
Summary
TARDBP (TAR DNA binding protein, HGNC:11571) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p36.22, encoding TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (Q13148). RNA-binding protein that is involved in various steps of RNA biogenesis and processing. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 97.5% of cancer cell lines).
HIV-1, the causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), contains an RNA genome that produces a chromosomally integrated DNA during the replicative cycle. Activation of HIV-1 gene expression by the transactivator Tat is dependent on an RNA regulatory element (TAR) located downstream of the transcription initiation site. The protein encoded by this gene is a transcriptional repressor that binds to chromosomally integrated TAR DNA and represses HIV-1 transcription. In addition, this protein regulates alternate splicing of the CFTR gene. A similar pseudogene is present on chromosome 20.

Function. RNA-binding protein that is involved in various steps of RNA biogenesis and processing. Preferentially binds, via its two RNA recognition motifs RRM1 and RRM2, to GU-repeats on RNA molecules predominantly localized within long introns and in the 3’UTR of mRNAs. In turn, regulates the splicing of many non-coding and protein-coding RNAs including proteins involved in neuronal survival, as well as mRNAs that encode proteins relevant for neurodegenerative diseases. Plays a role in maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis by regulating the processing of mitochondrial transcripts. Also regulates mRNA stability by recruiting CNOT7/CAF1 deadenylase on mRNA 3’UTR leading to poly(A) tail deadenylation and thus shortening. In response to oxidative insult, associates with stalled ribosomes localized to stress granules (SGs) and contributes to cell survival. Also participates in the normal skeletal muscle formation and regeneration, forming cytoplasmic myo-granules and binding mRNAs that encode sarcomeric proteins. Plays a role in the maintenance of the circadian clock periodicity via stabilization of the CRY1 and CRY2 proteins in a FBXL3-dependent manner. Negatively regulates the expression of CDK6. Regulates the expression of HDAC6, ATG7 and VCP in a PPIA/CYPA-dependent manner.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Homooligomer (via its N-terminal domain). Interacts with BRDT. Binds specifically to pyrimidine-rich motifs of TAR DNA and to single stranded TG repeated sequences. Binds to RNA, specifically to UG repeated sequences with a minimum of six contiguous repeats. Interacts with ATXN2; the interaction is RNA-dependent. Interacts with MATR3. Interacts with UBQLN2. Interacts with HNRNPA2B1. Interacts with ZNF106. Interacts with CNOT7/CAF1. Interacts with CRY2. Interacts with PPIA/CYPA; the interaction is dependent on RNA-binding activity of TARDBP and PPIase activity of PPIA/CYPA and acetylation of PPIA/CYPA at ‘Lys-125’ favors the interaction.
Subcellular location. Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Stress granule. Mitochondrion.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitously expressed. In particular, expression is high in pancreas, placenta, lung, genital tract and spleen.
Post-translational modifications. Hyperphosphorylated in hippocampus, neocortex, and spinal cord from individuals affected with ALS and FTLDU. Phosphorylated upon cellular stress. Ubiquitinated in hippocampus, neocortex, and spinal cord from individuals affected with ALS and FTLDU. Cleaved to generate C-terminal fragments in hippocampus, neocortex, and spinal cord from individuals affected with ALS and FTLDU.
Disease relevance. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 10 (ALS10) [MIM:612069] A neurodegenerative disorder affecting upper motor neurons in the brain and lower motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord, resulting in fatal paralysis. Sensory abnormalities are absent. The pathologic hallmarks of the disease include pallor of the corticospinal tract due to loss of motor neurons, presence of ubiquitin-positive inclusions within surviving motor neurons, and deposition of pathologic aggregates. The etiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is likely to be multifactorial, involving both genetic and environmental factors. The disease is inherited in 5-10% of the cases. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Neurodegeneration is caused by activation of the cGAS-STING pathway: defects in TARDBP trigger mitochondrial DNA release into the cytosol via the permeability transition pore. Released mitochondrial DNA is then detected by CGAS, leading to activation of the cGAS-STING pathway, triggering type-I interferon production and autoinflammation.
Domain organisation. Consists of an N-terminal domain (NTD) and two tandem RNA recognition motifs, RRM1 and RRM2, followed by a C-terminal glycine-rich region. Contains a nuclear localization sequence and is mostly nuclear; however, its nuclear export sequence permits it to transport mRNAs to the cytoplasm and even to synapses as part of neuronal granules.

Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 176 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
