Description | Specificity: MAPT antibody detects endogenous levels of total MAPT. Description: Tau is a heterogeneous microtubule-associated protein that promotes and stabilizes microtubule assembly, especially in axons. Six isoforms with different amino-terminal inserts and different numbers of tandem repeats near the carboxy-terminus have been identified, and tau is hyperphosphorylated at approximately 25 sites by Erk, GSK-3, and CDK5 (1, 2). Phosphorylation decreases the ability of tau to bind to microtubules. Neurofibrillary tangles are a major hallmark of Alzheimer's disease; these tangles are bundles of paired helical filaments composed of hyperphosphorylated tau. In particular, phosphorylation at Ser396 by GSK-3 or CDK5 destabilizes microtubules i |
Immunogen | Immunogen: A synthesized peptide derived from human MAPT Subcellular Location: Cytoplasm > Cytosol. Cell Membrane. Cytoplasm > Cytoskeleton. Cell projection > Axon. Mostly found in the axons of neurons, in the cytosol and in association with plasma membrane components. Tissue Specificity: Expressed in neurons. Isoform PNS-tau is expressed in the peripheral nervous system while the others are expressed in the central nervous system. |
