Tau proteins, which are responsible for Alzheimer's disease, bind to the folding protein Hsp90. The molecular recognition mechanisms that play a role here, have been unveiled by an international team of scientists led by the Technische Universitaet Muenchen (TUM) and the Helmholtz Zentrum Muenchen. This might open the door for new approaches for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, as the scientists report in the trade journal "Cell".Proteins like the so-called heat shock protein Hsp90 play an important role in almost all processes within human cells.
