CAMP/PKA signaling regulates TDP-43 aggregation and mislocalization.

ABSTRACT: Cytoplasmic mislocalization and aggregation of TDP-43 protein are hallmarks of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and are observed in the vast majority of both familial and sporadic cases. How these two interconnected processes are regulated on a molecular level, however, remains enigmatic. Genome-wide screens for modifiers of the ALS-associated genes TDP-43 and FUS have identified the phospholipase D (Pld) pathway as a key regulator of ALS-related phenotypes in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster [M. W. Kankel et al., Genetics 215, 747-766 (2020)]. Here, we report the results of our search for downstream targets of the enzymatic product of Pld, phosphatidic acid. We identify two conserved negative regulators of the cAMP/PKA signaling pathway, the phos
