Abstract excerpt
The microtubule-associated protein tau is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases characterized by amyloid formation. Mutations associated with frontotemporal dementia increase tau aggregation propensity and disrupt its endogenous microtubule-binding activity. However, the structural relationship between aggregation propensity and biological activity remains unclear. We employed a multi-disciplinary approach,...
