Abstract excerpt
Misfolded, pathological tau protein propagates from cell to cell causing neuronal degeneration in Alzheimer's disease and other tauopathies. The molecular mechanisms of this process have remained elusive. Unconventional secretion of tau takes place via several different routes, including direct penetration through the plasma membrane. Here, we show that tau secretion requires membrane interaction via disulphide...
