Microtubule-associated protein tau, Neurofibrillary tangle protein, Paired helical filament-tau, PHF-tau
Antipeptide antibodies were generated in chickens against two sequences shared between the mouse (P10637.3) and human (P10636.5) gene products. Neither of these sequences contain phosphorylated serine or threonine residues, so these Tau antibodies recognize both the euphosphorylated and hyperphosphorylated forms of Tau. Antibodies were affinity-purified from IgY fractions prepared from yolks collected from hyperimmunized hens. These antibodies have been validated with human, mouse and rat tissues.
