Mutation-dependent aggregation of tau protein and its selective depletion from the soluble fraction in brain of P301L FTDP-17 patients
1 Dec 2000
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the gene for the microtubule-associated protein tau are associated with frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17). In this study we compared the presence of the P301L mutated tau protein from brain material of patients with that of the normal 4-repeat, using polyclonal antibodies specific for the P301L point mutation and its normal counterpart. We determined the...
