Of particular relevance to the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) field, PP2A/Bα holoenzymes can directly bind to the microtubule-associated protein tau (Sontag et al.,1999, 2012; Xu et al.,2008). PubMed:24653673
It is noteworthy that PP2A/Bα can directly bind to tau via a domain encompassing the microtubule-binding of tau; this interaction maximizes the efficiency of tau dephosphorylation by PP2A (Sontag et al.,1999; Xu et al.,2008; Figure 3A). PubMed:24653673
Conversely, decreased PP2A methylation and PP2A/Bα levels in AD will disrupt normal PP2A-tau interactions (Sontag et al., 2007), thereby preventing PP2A-mediated tau dephosphorylation while allowing for enhanced binding of Fyn kinase or other regulators to the tau proteins. PubMed:24653673
