Mapt mutations are found in brain disorders. Most of them are located in sequences encoding microtubule-binding domains. However, some are in the 5'UTR tau mRNAs.

FTLD-MAPT mutations and short 5′UTR Tau mRNAs increase Tau translation

Abstract. Tau protein plays a central role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other tauopathies. Tau proteins aggregate in degenerating neurons and their expr
