Alzheimer risk gene product Pyk2 suppresses tau phosphorylation and phenotypic effects of tauopathy

BACKGROUND: Genetic variation at the PTK2B locus encoding the protein Pyk2 influences Alzheimer’s disease risk. Neurons express Pyk2 and the protein is required for Amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide driven deficits of synaptic function and memory in mouse models, but Pyk2 deletion has minimal effect on neuro-i...
