Tau gene expression in rat sensory neurons during development and regeneration
1 Aug 1991
Abstract excerpt
In the mature rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG), only one tau isoform is expressed, and this protein (110 kDa in apparent molecular weight) is considerably larger in size than the predominant tau isoforms found in brain. The size of the mRNA encoding the "big" tau mRNA in DRG [approximately 8 kilobases (kb)] is also much larger than that of the major rat brain tau mRNA species (approximately 6 kb). In this study, we...
