Microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) were initially discovered as proteins that bind to
and stabilize microtubules. Today, an ever-growing number of MAPs reveals a more …

Multiprotein signalling networks create focal points of enzyme activity that disseminate the
intracellular action of many hormones and neurotransmitters. Accordingly, the spatio …

Microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) is the predominant cytoskeletal regulator within
neuronal dendrites, abundant and specific enough to serve as a robust somatodendritic …

The detailed protein composition of the paired helical filaments (PHF) that accumulate in
human neurons in aging and Alzheimer disease is unknown. However, the identity of certain …

Brain glucose uptake, oxygen metabolism, and blood flow in humans were measured with
positron emission tomography, and a resting-state molar ratio of oxygen to glucose …

Tau protein from mammalian brain promotes microtubule polymerization in vitro and is
induced during nerve cell differentiation. However, the effects of tau or any other microtubule …

Tau protein plays a role in the extension and maintenance of neuronal processes through a
direct association with microtubules. To characterize the nature of this association, we have …

Tau protein is a microtubule-associated protein implicated in the spatial and temporal
specification of microtubules and has been found in the neurofibrillary tangles of Alzheimer's …

Synaptopodin is an actin-associated protein of differentiated podocytes that also occurs as
part of the actin cytoskeleton of postsynaptic densities (PSD) and associated dendritic …

Tau protein is a family of microtubule binding proteins, heterogeneous in molecular weight,
that are induced during neurite outgrowth and are found prominently in neurofibrillary …
