Structures of filaments from Pick’s disease reveal a novel tau protein fold
2018-04-16
Abstract excerpt
The ordered assembly of tau protein into abnormal filamentous inclusions underlies many human neurodegenerative diseases 1 . Tau assemblies appear to spread through specific neural networks in each disease 2 , with short filaments having the greatest seeding activity 3 . The abundance of tau inclusions strongly correlates with disease symptoms 4 . Six tau isoforms are expressed in normal adult human brain - th...
