Recombinant production and purification of the human protein Tau

Tau protein is a microtubule-stabilising protein whose aggregation is linked to Alzheimer's Disease and other forms of dementia. Tau biology is at the heart of cytoskeletal dynamics and neurodegenerative mechanisms, making it a crucial protein to study. Tau purification, however, is challenging as Tau is disordered, which makes it difficult to produce in recombinant system and is degradation-prone. It is thus challenging to obtain pure and...
