UBE4B, a microRNA-9 target gene, promotes autophagy-mediated Tau degradation

Hyperphosphorylated Tau accumulation promotes neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease. Here, the authors screen a miRNA library in Drosophila and identify a conserved ubiquitin ligase that directs Tau for autophagic degradation, uncovering a potential target to treat Tau-mediated neurodegeneration....
