Tau, aa1-381, Recombinant, Human (Microtubule-associated Protein Tau Isoform CRA_f, MAPT, DDPAC, FLJ

Tau, also known as microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT), is a protein that stabilizes microtubules. It is abundant in neurons in the central nervous system and is less common elsewhere. When this protein is defective, and no longer stabilizes microtubules properly, it can result in dementias, such as Alzheimer's disease. Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-381 of human Tau, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, expressed in E. coli (EAW93573). , Amino Acid Sequence:, MGSSHHHHHH SSGLVPRGSH MAEPRQEFEV MEDHAGTYGL GDRKDQGGYT MHQDQEGDTD AGLKESPLQT PTEDGSEEPG SETSDAKSTP TAEAEEAGIG DTPSLEDEAA GHVTQARMVS KSKDGTGSDD KKAKGADGKT KIATPRGAAP PGQKGQANAT RIPAKTPPAP KTPPSSGEPP , KSGDRSGYSS PGSPGTPGSR SRTPSLPTPP TREPKKVAVV RTPPKSPSSA KSRLQTAPVP MPDLKNVKSK IGSTENLKHQ PGGGKVQIVY KPVDLSKVTS KCGSLGNIHH KPGGGQVEVK SEKLDFKDRV QSKIGSLDNI THVPGGGNKK IETHKLTFRE NAKAKTDHGA EIVYKSPVVS, GDTSPRHLSN VSSTGSIDMV DSPQLATLAD EVSASLAKQG L, Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
