(A) Tau protein and its domains. The full-length Tau protein comprises two major domains, projection and microtubule-binding domain. The projection domain includes two inserts and a polyproline stretch. The microtubule-binding domain has four imperfect repeats of 29 amino acids each of which is mainly involved in binding to microtubules. These repeats also form the core of paired helical filaments (PHFs) that enhances the aggregation of Tau protein. (B) Table of nanoparticles with their chemical composition.
