About Mapt

Chromosome 11: 104,122,216-104,222,916 forward strand.GRCm39:CM001004.3

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 225 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 70 phenotypes. Biased expression in CNS E18 (RPKM 123.), whole brain E14.5 (RPKM 8.2) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables DNA binding activity; microtubule binding activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of tubulin deacetylation; regulation of cellular response to heat; and regulation of response to DNA damage stimulus. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adult walking behavior; generation of neurons; and transport along microtubule. Located in several cellular components, including cytoskeleton; glial cell projection; and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including gut; nervous system; sensory organ; smooth muscle tissue; and urinary system. Used to study Alzheimer's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dementia (multiple); neurodegenerative disease (multiple); progressive supranuclear palsy; and temporal lobe epilepsy. Orthologous to human MAPT (microtubule associated protein tau). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
