Tau protein in Alzheimer's disease,illustration.Pathological phosphorylation (yellow) of Tau proteins (red-orange) by kinases (blue-purple) affect nerve cells in what is called a neurofibrillary tangle.This illustration shows pathological aggregations of tau proteins causing disintegration of a microtubule (cylindrical structure).The transport of synaptic vesicles (orange-blue spheres,one at top left) is also interrupted.A neurofibrillary tangle consists of abnormal aggregates and insoluble fibres of the protein tau.

RF KDG9M3 – Microtubules, 3D computer illustration. Microtubules are polymers of the protein tubulin. They are a component of the cytoskeleton, which maintains a cell's shape, allows some cellular mobility and is involved in intracellular transport. The tubular polymers of tubulin can grow as long 50 micrometres and are highly dynamic. In Alzheimer's disease, the transport of tau-protein (belonging to the MAP proteins) stabilizing the microtubules is disturbed and allows phosphate-groups to attach to the tau-protein, destabilizing the microtubuli of brain axons. This leads to the agglutination of the RF 2T0E9P2 – Amyloid plaques forming between neurons. Beta-amyloid protein disrupting nerve cells function in a brain with Alzheimer's disease RF KDG9MH – Structure of a microtubule, 3D computer illustration. Microtubules are polymers of the protein tubulin which is composed of two subunits, alpha- and beta-tubulin. They are a component of the cytoskeleton, which maintains a cell's shape, allows some cellular mobility and is involved in intracellular transport. The tubular polymers of tubulin can grow as long 50 micrometres and are highly dynamic.
