Product Specific Information

A 1:1,000 dilution of MA5-45952 was sufficient for detection of Tau 2N4R P301S Fibril in 20 µg of Mouse Brain by ECL immunoblot analysis using goat anti-mouse IgG:HRP as the secondary antibody.

Detects Multiple Bands. Antibody detects monomer under denaturing conditions but preferentially detects fibril under native conditions (dot blot).

Target Information

Tau is a neuronal microtubule-associated protein found predominantly on axons. The function of Tau is to promote tubulin polymerization and stabilize microtubules. The C-terminus binds axonal microtubules while the N- terminus binds neural plasma membrane components, suggesting that tau functions as a linker protein between both. Axonal polarity is predetermined by TAU/MAPT localization (in the neuronal cell) in the domain of the cell body defined by the centrosome. The short isoforms allow plasticity of the cytoskeleton while the longer isoforms may preferentially play a role in its stabilization. In its hyper-phosphorylated form, Tau is the major component of paired helical filaments (PHF), the building block of neurofibrillary lesions in Alzheimers diseases (AD) brain. Hyper-phosphorylation impairs the microtubule binding function of Tau, resulting in the destabilization of microtubules in AD brains, ultimately leading to the degeneration of the affected neurons. Numerous serine/threonine kinases phosphorylate Tau, including GSK-3beta, protein kinase A (PKA), cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (cdk5) and casein kinase II. Hyper-phosphorylated Tau is found in neurofibrillary lesions in a range and other central nervous system disorders such as Picks disease, frontotemporal dementia, cortico-basal degeneration and progressive supranuclear palsy.
