Tau hyperphosphorylation correlates with reduced methylation of protein phosphatase 2A
The down-regulation of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity is thought to play an important role in the formation of tau hyperphosphorylation in the Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. Methylation of the PP2A catalytic subunit at the L309 site can potently activate PP2A for some substrates via th...
