Investigations into Tyrosine-mediated Hyperphosphorylation and Aggregation of Tau Protein via Ferrocene Bioconjugates

Tau, a microtubule associated protein, has been implicated in the formation of neurofibrillary tangles, a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease.1 Resulting from the hyperphosphorylation of tyrosine, serine and threonine residues, protein kinases play an intricate role in the pathway of NFT formation.2 Whi...
