Multivalent cross-linking of actin filaments and microtubules through the microtubule-associated protein Tau
The microtubule associated protein Tau also interacts with filamentous actin. Here the authors combine biophysical experiments and NMR studies to characterize the structural changes that occur in Tau upon binding to filamentous actin and show that phosphorylation of serine 262 attenuates actin bindi...
