Tau is an m6A-associated RNA binding protein that causes RNA dysregulation in disease
Coding variants in MAPT, the gene encoding tau, cause dementia, but the molecular mechanisms underlying tau pathogenicity are largely unknown. Our characterization of postmortem brain samples from patients with MAPT coding variants and iPSC-derived neurons (iNeurons) with the dementia-causing MAPT V337M mutation reveals wide-spread changes in the abundance of RNA-binding proteins. MAPT V337M…
