[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TAU_HUMAN TAU_HUMAN] Note=In Alzheimer disease, the neuronal cytoskeleton in the brain is progressively disrupted and replaced by tangles of paired helical filaments (PHF) and straight filaments, mainly composed of hyperphosphorylated forms of TAU (PHF-TAU or AD P-TAU). O-GlcNAcylation is greatly reduced in Alzheimer disease brain cerebral cortex leading to an increase in TAU/MAPT phosphorylations.<ref>PMID:19451179</ref> <ref>PMID:2484340</ref> <ref>PMID:14517953</ref> Defects in MAPT are a cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/600274 600274]; also called frontotemporal dementia (FTD), pallido-ponto-nigral degeneration (PPND) or historically termed Pick complex. This form of frontotemporal dementia is characterized by presenile dementia with behavioral changes, deterioration of cognitive capacities and loss of memory. In some cases, parkinsonian symptoms are prominent. Neuropathological changes include frontotemporal atrophy often associated with atrophy of the basal ganglia, substantia nigra, amygdala. In most cases, protein tau deposits are found in glial cells and/or neurons.<ref>PMID:19451179</ref> <ref>PMID:2484340</ref> <ref>PMID:14517953</ref> <ref>PMID:9629852</ref> <ref>PMID:9736786</ref> <ref>PMID:9641683</ref> <ref>PMID:9789048</ref> <ref>PMID:9973279</ref> <ref>PMID:10553987</ref> <ref>PMID:10214944</ref> <ref>PMID:10374757</ref> <ref>PMID:10489057</ref> <ref>PMID:10208578</ref> <ref>PMID:11117541</ref> <ref>PMID:10802785</ref> <ref>PMID:11071507</ref> <ref>PMID:11585254</ref> <ref>PMID:11278002</ref> <ref>PMID:12473774</ref> <ref>PMID:11921059</ref> <ref>PMID:11906000</ref> <ref>PMID:11889249</ref> <ref>PMID:12509859</ref> <ref>PMID:16240366</ref> <ref>PMID:15883319</ref> Defects in MAPT are a cause of Pick disease of the brain (PIDB) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/172700 172700]. It is a rare form of dementia pathologically defined by severe atrophy, neuronal loss and gliosis. It is characterized by the occurrence of tau-positive inclusions, swollen neurons (Pick cells) and argentophilic neuronal inclusions known as Pick bodies that disproportionally affect the frontal and temporal cortical regions. Clinical features include aphasia, apraxia, confusion, anomia, memory loss and personality deterioration.<ref>PMID:19451179</ref> <ref>PMID:2484340</ref> <ref>PMID:14517953</ref> <ref>PMID:10604746</ref> <ref>PMID:11117542</ref> <ref>PMID:11089577</ref> <ref>PMID:11601501</ref> <ref>PMID:11891833</ref> Note=Defects in MAPT are a cause of corticobasal degeneration (CBD).

PSNP1 is characterized by akinetic-rigid syndrome, supranuclear gaze palsy, pyramidal tract dysfunction, pseudobulbar signs and cognitive capacities deterioration. Neurofibrillary tangles and gliosis but no amyloid plaques are found in diseased brains. Most cases appear to be sporadic, with a significant association with a common haplotype including the MAPT gene and the flanking regions. Familial cases show an autosomal dominant pattern of transmission with incomplete penetrance; genetic analysis of a few cases showed the occurrence of tau mutations, including a deletion of Asn-613.<ref>PMID:19451179</ref> <ref>PMID:2484340</ref> <ref>PMID:14517953</ref> <ref>PMID:10534245</ref> <ref>PMID:11220749</ref> <ref>PMID:12325083</ref> <ref>PMID:14991829</ref> <ref>PMID:14991828</ref> <ref>PMID:16157753</ref> Defects in MAPT are a cause of Parkinson-dementia syndrome (PARDE) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/260540 260540].

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TAU_HUMAN TAU_HUMAN] Promotes microtubule assembly and stability, and might be involved in the establishment and maintenance of neuronal polarity. The C-terminus binds axonal microtubules while the N-terminus binds neural plasma membrane components, suggesting that tau functions as a linker protein between both. Axonal polarity is predetermined by TAU/MAPT localization (in the neuronal cell) in the domain of the cell body defined by the centrosome. The short isoforms allow plasticity of the cytoskeleton whereas the longer isoforms may preferentially play a role in its stabilization.<ref>PMID:21985311</ref>

The use of variable domain of the heavy-chain of the heavy-chain-only antibodies (VHHs) as disease-modifying biomolecules in neurodegenerative disorders holds promises, including targeting of aggregation-sensitive proteins. Exploitation of their clinical values depends however on the capacity to deliver VHHs with optimal physico-chemical properties for their specific context of use. We described previously a VHH with high therapeutic potential in a family of neurodegenerative diseases called tauopathies. The activity of this promising parent VHH named Z70 relies on its binding within the central region of the tau protein. Accordingly, we carried out random mutagenesis followed by yeast two-hybrid screening to obtain optimized variants. The VHHs selected from this initial screen targeted the same epitope as VHH Z70 as shown using NMR spectroscopy and had indeed improved binding affinities according to dissociation constant values obtained by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. The improved affinities can be partially rationalized based on three-dimensional structures and NMR data of three complexes consisting of an optimized VHH and a peptide containing the tau epitope. Interestingly, the ability of the VHH variants to inhibit tau aggregation and seeding could not be predicted from their affinity alone. We indeed showed that the in vitro and in cellulo VHH stabilities are other limiting key factors to their efficacy. Our results demonstrate that only a complete pipeline of experiments, here described, permits a rational selection of optimized VHH variants, resulting in the selection of VHH variants with higher affinities and/or acting against tau seeding in cell models.
