ABSTRACT:
Tau proteins are the one of the most important causes of neurological diseases like Alzheimer’s disease (AD).Tau proteins are the stabilized form of microtubule associated protein (MAP) of a normal motor neuron.Tau protein is a highly soluble microtubule-associated protein (MAP). In humans, these proteins are found mostly in neurons compared to non-neuronal cells. One of the tau's main functions is to modulate the stability of axonal microtubules.Neurofibrillary tangles are obtained by hyperphosphorylation of a microtubule-associated protein. This article deals with the role of Tau proteins and the methods in which they lead to AD
