Abstract: | A new fluorescence at 333 nm formed when the solution of human neuronal tau protein was incubated at 37°C. The maximum excitation
was at 230 and 280 nm respectively with the quantum yield of about 0.02. It took about 30 h for the complete formation of
the new fluorescence and the light scattering increased with the formation procedure. It suggests that the fluorescence resulted
from the aggregation of tau molecules in solution. |
