Tau binding protein CAPON induces tau aggregation and neurodegeneration

To understand the molecular processes that link Aβ amyloidosis, tauopathy and neurodegeneration, the authors screened for tau-interacting proteins. They demonstrated that a novel tau binding protein CAPON accelerates tau pathology and neuronal cell death in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model.
