Tau Protein

Tau protein compounds act on the microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) and its aggregation in neurodegeneration. Tau was described in 1975 as a protein factor essential for microtubule assembly. In 1986 abnormally phosphorylated tau was identified in the cytoskeletal pathology of Alzheimer disease. Assembly of tau into paired helical filaments depends on the hexapeptide motif VQIVYK at residues 306 to 311, which forms beta structure. Tau Peptide (306-317) spans this motif and serves as a substrate in aggregation assays. TRx0237 (LMTX) mesylate, PE859 and nimbin are listed as inhibitors of tau aggregation. QC-01–175 is a proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) that degrades tau, whereas MRL828 is an autophagosome-tethering compound (ATTEC) for tau.
