The paper identifies exitron-type splicing events in IDR-coding sequences across jawed vertebrates, showing donor-proximal cis control in TARDBP despite sequence divergence.

This study shows that export-biased TDP-43 with intact 3' UTR leads to cytoplasmic aggregation and splicing defects, even when exogenous levels match endogenous, suggesting loss of nuclear function.

This paper shows that enhancing TARDBP exitron splicing reduces TDP-43 aggregation and neurodegeneration in disease models using ASOs.
