MARK4 with an Alzheimer’s disease-related mutation promotes tau hyperphosphorylation directly and indirectly and exacerbates neurodegeneration
2020-05-23
Abstract excerpt
Accumulation of the microtubule-associated protein tau is associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In AD brain, tau is abnormally phosphorylated at many sites, and phosphorylation at Ser262 and Ser356 play critical roles in tau accumulation and toxicity. Microtubule-affinity regulating kinase 4 (MARK4) phosphorylates tau at those sites, and a double de novo mutation in the linker region of MARK4, ΔG316E317InsD,...
