Description

TAR DNA-binding protein-43 homolog

Gene Summary

Enables GU repeat RNA binding activity and single-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including adult walking behavior; negative regulation of synaptic assembly at neuromuscular junction; and synapse organization. Located in H zone; nucleus; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryonic/larval midgut primordium; ganglia; glial cell; and somatic muscle cell. Used to study amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 10; frontotemporal dementia; and neurodegenerative disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 10; and motor neuron disease. Orthologous to human TARDBP (TAR DNA binding protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
