NMR Meets Tau: Insights into Its Function and Pathology.
Biomolecules. 2016;6(2)
Authors: Lippens G, Landrieu I, Smet C, Huvent I, Gandhi NS, Gigant B, Despres C, Qi H, Lopez J
Abstract
In this review, we focus on what we have learned from Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) studies on the neuronal microtubule-associated protein Tau. We consider both the mechanistic details of Tau: the tubulin relationship and its aggregation process. Phosphorylation of Tau is intimately linked to both aspects. NMR spectroscopy has depicted accurate phosphorylation patterns by different kinases, and its non-destructive character has allowed functional assays with the same samples. Finally, we will discuss other post-translational modifications of Tau and its interaction with other cellular factors in relationship to its (dys)function.

Relaxation plays a major role in NMR spectroscopy – What’s better than playing sports to chill out and forget about everyday problems?
I reckon this is not the best football team you might find but at least I guarantee they are fun people (sponsored by a great company :-) ) with whom you can have a good time (and get a free t-shirt!) :-)
