Abstract

Abstract: Paired helical filaments (PHFs) are the structural constituents of neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease and are composed of hyperphosphorylated forms of the microtubule‐associated protein tau (PHF‐tau). Pathological hyperphosphorylation of tau is believed to be an important contributor to the destabilisation of microtubules and their subsequent disappearance from tangle‐bearing neurons in Alzheimer's disease, making elucidation of the mechanisms that regulate tau phosphorylation an important research goal. Thus, it is essential to identify, preferably by direct sequencing, all of the sites in PHF‐tau that are phosphorylated, a task that is incomplete because of the difficulty to date of purifying insoluble PHF‐tau to homogeneity and in sufficient quantities for structural analysis. Here we describe the solubilisation of PHF‐tau followed by its purification by Mono Q chromatography and reversed‐phase HPLC. Phosphopeptides from proteolytically digested PHF‐tau were sequenced by nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry. We identified 22 phosphorylation sites in PHF‐tau, including five sites not previously identified. The combination of our new data with previous reports shows that PHF‐tau can be phosphorylated on at least 25 different sites.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
