Proline-directed pseudo-phosphorylation at AT8 and PHF1 epitopes induces a compaction of the paperclip folding of Tau and generates a pathological (MC-1) conformation.

TL;DR: The results provide a framework for the global folding of Tau dependent on proline-directed phosphorylation in the domains flanking the repeats and the consequences for pathological properties of Tau.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for a role of the rare p.A152T variant in MAPT in increasing the risk for FTD-spectrum and Alzheimer's diseases

Giovanni Coppola, +211 more
TL;DR: These data provide the first genetic evidence and functional studies supporting the role of MAPT p.A152T as a rare risk factor for both FTD-s and AD and the concept that rare variants can increase the risk for relatively common, complex neurodegenerative diseases is suggested.

Proline-directed Pseudo-phosphorylation at AT8 and PHF1 Epitopes Induces a Compaction of the Paperclip Folding of

TL;DR: Jeganathan et al. as mentioned in this paper showed that the paperclip conformation becomes tighter or looser, depending on the pseudo-phosphorylation state of the protein. And they provided a framework for the global folding of Tau dependent on proline-directed phosphorylation in the domains flanking the repeats.
Journal ArticleDOI

β-sheet core of Tau paired helical filaments revealed by solid-state NMR

TL;DR: Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is applied to investigate in vitro assembled PHFs from a truncated three-repeat tau isoform (K19) that represents the core of PHFs and finds that the rigid core of the fibrils is formed by amino acids V306 to S324, only 18 out of 99 residues, and comprises three β-strands connected by two short kinks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Tau Isoforms Assemble into Ribbon-like Fibrils That Display Polymorphic Structure and Stability

TL;DR: Th thin and thick fibrils assembled from different human Tau isoforms challenge current structural models of paired helical filaments and, upon exposure to mechanical stress or hydrophobic surfaces, disassemble into uniform fragments that remain connected by thin thread-like structures.
