APT Peptide

Tau binding peptide targeting the PHF seed of Tau


Usage and Biology

This part is derived from D-enantiomeric peptide its amino acid sequence is APTLLRLHSLGA, that can bind to PHF seed (VQIVYK), its half maximal concentration for tau fibril formation inhibition is 139.6 μM. In addition, it has low cell penetration ability.

Modeling

APT were modeled by AlphaFold2, Apptest, ITASSER and RosettaFold. best model is obtained from AlphaFold2 and the model is shown below
