N368-Tau fragments generated by legumain are detected only in trace amount in the insoluble Tau aggregates isolated from AD brain

Abstract Intraneuronal insoluble inclusions made of Tau protein are neuropathological hallmarks of Alzheimer Disease (AD). Cleavage of Tau by legumain (LGMN) has been proposed to be crucial for aggregation of Tau into fibrils. However, it remains unclear if LGMN-cleaved Tau fragments accumulate in A...
