Funded Activity Summary

Transcriptional and translational regulation of the neuronal protein tau. The microtubule-associated protein tau is important for brain development and performance. To perform these functions, tau levels and its variants are tightly controlled in brain cells. However, the factors that regulate tau remain largely unknown. This project will employ latest gene technologies to identify the molecular regulators of tau, for each step of the process from DNA to the protein. The outcome of this study will significantly advance our understanding of gene regulation and mechanisms for controlling protein levels and contribute to a deeper understanding of brain function during development and aging.
