Abstract excerpt
Due to the importance of 4R tau (with four microtubule-binding-repeat domains) in the pathogenicity of primary tauopathies, it has been challenging to model these diseases in induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons, which express very low levels of 4R tau. To address this, we have developed a panel of isogenic iPSC lines carrying MAPT splice-site mutations, S305S, S305I, or S305N, derived from four...
