RESUMO
Microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) of the MAP2/Tau family include the vertebrate proteins MAP2, MAP4, and Tau and homologs in other animals. They are best known for their microtubule-stabilizing activity roles regulating microtubule networks but, accumulating evidence suggests a much broader range of functions. regulation of microtubule-mediated transport. Tau is also implicated in Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.
