Anti-TAU antibody detects endogenous levels of total TAU protein.
MAPT (microtubule associated protein tau) is located on human chromosome 17q21.3. It is expressed in neurons but is most prominent in axons.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Tau.
Immunogen Range: 526-575
Biochem/physiol Actions
Removal of MAPT results in developmental delay and learning disability. It participates in the pathology of Alzheimer′s disease (AD). It helps in the assembly and maintenance of microtubule structure.

Heavy drinking can induce early-onset dementia and increase the likelihood of the progression and severity of Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias (ADRD). Recently, we showed that alcohol-drinking by mature adult C57BL/6J mice induces more signs of cognitive impairment in females
