Mutations causing amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) often affect the condensation properties of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs). However, the role of RBP condensation in the specificity and function of protein-RNA complexes remains unclear. We created a series of TDP-43 C-terminal domain (CTD) variants that exhibited a gradient of low to high condensation propensity, as observed in vitro and by nuclear mobility and foci formation. Notably, a capacity for condensation was required for efficient TDP-43 assembly on subsets of RNA-binding regions, which contain unusually long clusters of motifs of characteristic types and density. These “binding-region condensates” are promoted by homomeric CTD-driven interactions and required for efficient regulation of a subset of bound transcripts, including autoregulation of TDP-43 mRNA. We establish that RBP condensation can occur in a binding-region-specific manner to selectively modulate transcriptome-wide RNA regulation, which has implications for remodeling RNA networks in the context of signaling, disease, and evolution. TDP-43 mutants affect condensation properties to a similar extent at multiple scales Binding-region condensates form on long RNA regions with dispersed UG-rich motifs RBPchimera-CLIP indicates homomeric interactions promote molecular-scale condensates Condensation selectively tunes the regulatory capacity of TDP-43; e.g., autoregulation The condensation propensity of an RNA-binding protein tunes its binding to specific RNA regions across the transcriptome and affects its RNA processing functions. Formation of these “binding-region condensates,” promoted by specific motif types that are dispersed across long RNA regions, expands the ways in which RNA binding can be selectively controlled beyond canonical RNA-binding domains.
