Background
TAR DNA binding protein (TARDBP), also known as TDP-43, is a cellular protein. TARDBP was identified as the disease accumulating protein in patients with frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) with ubiquitin inclusions (FTLD-U) and in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). TARDBP functions as a DNA-binding protein and specifically binds to the TAR DNA sequence motifs of HIV. Via this association with TAR motifs, TARDBP acts as a transcriptional repressor and inhibits HIV-1 transcription. In addition, this protein regulates alternate splicing of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane receptor (CFTR) gene.
