Abstract excerpt
In vitro phosphorylation of recombinant wild-type 2N4R tau and FTDP-17 exonic mutant forms P301L, V337M and R406W by glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK3beta) was examined by two dimensional phosphopeptide mapping analysis on thin layer cellulose plates. Comparison of these peptide maps with those generated from wild-type 1N4R tau isoform from which the phosphopeptide constituents and sites of phosphorylation had...
