Description

Tau/MAPT proteins crucially promote microtubule assembly and stability, which are critical for neuronal polarity. Structurally, its C terminus binds to axonal microtubules and its N terminus binds to neuroplasmic membrane components, suggesting its role as a connexin connecting microtubules to the plasma membrane.

Background

Tau/MAPT Protein plays a crucial role in cellular dynamics by promoting microtubule assembly and stability, contributing to the establishment and maintenance of neuronal polarity. Its structural organization reveals a functional duality, with the C-terminus binding to axonal microtubules and the N-terminus engaging neural plasma membrane components. This arrangement suggests that tau serves as a linker protein, bridging the connection between microtubules and the plasma membrane in neurons. The localization of tau within the neuronal cell dictates axonal polarity, specifically in the region defined by the centrosome. Notably, the short isoforms offer cytoskeletal plasticity, while the longer isoforms likely play a preferential role in stabilization. Tau engages in a network of interactions with various proteins, including MARK1, MARK2, MARK3, MARK4, SQSTM1, PSMC2, FKBP4, CSNK1D, SGK1, PIN1, and LRRK2, illustrating its multifaceted involvement in cellular processes. Additionally, its interaction with LRP1, leading to endocytosis, highlights the intricate regulatory mechanisms governing tau's functional versatility.

Help & FAQs
  • How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

    1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss. 2. Taking 10 μg as an example, first add 20 μL of reconstituted solution provided by MCE and use a pipette to gently resuspend the lyophilized protein until it is fully dissolved.. (For most proteins, the reconstitution solution we provide is sterile water. If a diluent other than water is required, it will be indicated in the product's Certificate of Analysis (COA).). 3. Add an additional 80 μL of buffer/culture medium containing carrier protein (either 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS, or 5% trehalose), and then use a pipette to gently mix until uniform. The final concentration is should not be lower than 100 μg/mL. 4. Aliquot at least 20 μL per tube. 5. After aliquoting, store it frozen at a temperature ranging from -20ºC to -80ºC, and it can be preserved for 3 to 6 months.

  • How should solution-form recombinant proteins be stored?

    1. The product can be stored in its original form and diluted as needed upon use. 2. Alternatively, dilute with a buffer/culture medium containing a carrier protein (either 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS, or 5% alginate), mix well by pipetting, and ensure that

  • Why is it necessary to add carrier proteins?

    Carrier proteins are commonly added to enhance the stability of recombinant proteins, preventing them from adhering to the walls of the container during freezing or thawing processes. Plastic tubes have a certain adsorptive capacity for proteins, which may lead to difficulty in separating the protein from the tube walls, resulting in a decrease in the actual concentration of the protein in the solution and thus affecting its activity. To minimize such losses, it is recommended to add a commonly used carrier protein solution prior to the long-term storage of recombinant protein products.

  • Carrier protein types and options?

    In cases where the carrier protein is not expected to influence the experimental outcomes, an appropriate carrier protein, such as 0.1% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin), 5% HSA (Human Serum Albumin), 10% FBS (Fetal Bovine Serum), or 5% trehalose, can be incorpo
