Modification of the Drosophila model of in vivo Tau toxicity reveals protective phosphorylation by GSK3β
Summary Hyperphosphorylation of the microtubule associated protein, Tau, is the hallmark of a group of neurodegenerative disorders known as the tauopathies which includes Alzheimer's disease. Precisely how and why Tau phosphorylation is increased in disease is not fully understood, nor how indi...
