M4W39 Peptide

Tau binding peptide targeting the PHF seed of Tau

Usage and Biology

M4W39 is a peptide with amino acid sequence of DVWMINKKWK, it is designed to inhibit the fibrilization of tau which is one of the main drivers of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia diseases. PHF* (VQIINK) is the site that derive tau aggregation. M4W39 can bind to PHF* in a mean that can disrupt the interface between each PHF* and consequently reduce the aggregates. Its IC50 for inhibition of tau aggregates were 2.9 μM.
