Endolysosomal pathway activity protects cells from neurotoxic TDP-43

Endolysosomal pathway activity protects cells from neurotoxic TDP-43

The accumulation of protein aggregates in neurons is a typical pathological hallmark of the motor neuron disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). In many cases, these aggregates are composed of the 43 kDa TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP‑43). Using a yeast model...
