Engineered decoy RNAs containing modified G4C2 repeats could sequester pathological RNA species and prevent their interference with normal RNP condensate formation.
Debate provenance: derived from debate `sess_SDA-2026-04-11-sda-2026-04-01-gap-006` on question: TDP-43 phase separation therapeutics for ALS-FTD. Consensus signal: domain_expert, skeptic, synthesizer, theorist discussed the mechanism terms Decoy, G4C2, RNA, RNP, Therapeutics. Novelty signal: skeptic-discussed-with-qualified-concession.
