Show abstract
TDP-43 proteinopathies are a set of neurological disorders characterized by the abnormal accumulation and mislocalization of TDP-43 in the cytoplasm, leading to the disruption of the normal function of the protein. In most of the cases, it is the wildtype (wt) form of the protein that is involved. An untargeted high-throughput screen of a single-chain variable fragment (scFv) library was performed using phage display against human full-length wt TDP-43. Two scFvs (B1 and D7) were retained following cellular expression (then termed intrabodies) and colocalization with cytoplasmic TDP-43 in vitro. We generated a 3D structure of full length wt TDP-43 in silico, and used it for epitope mapping. In a cellular model of TDP-43 proteinopathy, D7 enhanced the proteasomal degradation of the insoluble 35-kDa C-terminal fragment TDP-43 and reversed some TDP-43-induced metabolomic alterations, particularly relating to the lipid metabolism. Our findings offer a new scFv intrabody that bind to human wtTDP-43 and modify cellular pathways associated with TDP-43 proteinopathies.
