Vervet tau is 98% identical to human tau and adults express all six human brain tau isoforms. Protein sequence alignment of vervet, marmoset, and mouse tau with the 1st 50 amino acids of the longest human tau isoform with sequences. Black box: primate-specific amino acid segment between residues 18–28, a region important for mediating protein-protein interactions. Red font: amino acids different than human tau.
