Tau is a neuronal microtubule-associated phosphoprotein that is highly phosphorylated by glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3). Tau phosphorylation by GSK3 regulates tau binding to microtubules, tau degradation and tau aggregation. Tau phosphorylation is important in Alzheimer disease pathology and in other tauopathies. In Alzheimer disease, it has been proposed that the peptide beta amyloid promotes...
Mutations in app, ps-1 and ps-2 genes result in the appearance of Familial Alzheimer disease (FAD). Although, in many cases, those mutations result in an increase of the amount of beta amyloid peptide, there is not a clear correlation between that amount and the time of the onset of the disease. Thus, other factors may explain how mutations in those genes result in the appearance of neurodegeneration...
