The RNA encoding the microtubule-associated protein tau has extensive structure that affects its biology

2019-03-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Tauopathies are neurodegenerative diseases that affect millions of people worldwide including those with Alzheimer’s disease. While many efforts have focused on understanding the role of tau protein in neurodegeneration, there has been little done to systematically analyze and study the structures within tau’s encoding RNA and their connection to disease pathology. Knowledge of RNA structure can...
