Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Neuroscience
  • Genetics

Background:

  • Mutations in RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), exemplified by TDP43, are linked to transcriptome-wide splicing defects.
  • These splicing alterations are implicated in severe neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
  • Current methods, primarily PCR-based bulk measurements, are limited in throughput and quantitative accuracy for systematic analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel, quantitative, and high-throughput assay for assessing RNA-binding protein (RBP) splicing function.
  • To enable single-cell level investigation of splicing defects caused by mutations in proteins like TDP43.
  • To overcome the limitations of traditional PCR-based methods for RBP splicing analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a quantitative, high-throughput flow cytometry assay.
  • Application of the assay to investigate the splicing function of TDP43.
  • Single-cell level analysis of splicing alterations.

Main Results:

  • Successfully established a flow cytometry assay for quantitative splicing analysis.
  • Demonstrated the assay's capability for high-throughput, single-cell level investigation.
  • Provided a new tool to study TDP43 splicing function and its role in disease.

Conclusions:

  • The developed flow cytometry assay offers a significant advancement over traditional methods for studying RBP splicing.
  • This high-throughput, quantitative approach facilitates systematic analysis and screening for splicing defects.
  • Enables deeper understanding of how TDP43 mutations impact splicing and contribute to neurodegenerative diseases.
