Tau Protein
Tau Protein: microtubule-associated protein that accumulates in neurons in neurofibrillary degeneration in a wide variety of disorders including Alzheimer’s disease; gene for tau protein situated on chromosome 17; normal role for tau protein is to stabilize microtubules; abnormal phosphorylation of tau protein destabilizes microtubules, which causes degenerative change.
