Alzheimer-like paired helical filaments and antiparallel dimers formed from microtubule-associated protein tau in vitro.
Abstract
Recent evidence from several laboratories shows that the paired helical filaments of Alzheimer's disease brains consist mainly of the protein tau in an abnormally phosphorylated form, but the mode of assembly is not understood. Here we use EM to study several constructs derived from human brain tau and expressed in Escherichia coli. All constructs or tau isoforms are rodlike molecules with a high tendency to dimerize in an antiparallel fashion, as shown by antibody labeling and chemical crosslinking. The length of the rods is largely determined by the region of internal repeats that is also responsible for microtubule binding. One unit length of the repeat domain (three or four repeats) is around 22-25 nm, comparable to the cross-section of Alzheimer PHF cores. Constructs corresponding roughly to the repeat region of tau can form synthetic paired helical filaments resembling those from Alzheimer brain tissue. A similar self-assembly occurs with the chemically cross-linked dimers. In both cases there is no need for phosphorylation of the protein.

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.
