Key Points

This research aims to develop a rapid biosensor assay for classifying tauopathies based on tau mutant behavior.
Developed a cell-based biosensor assay to test tau alanine point mutants
Classified tauopathies based on aggregation patterns of tau proteins
Analyzed incorporation into seeded aggregates
Identified distinct patterns of tau aggregates associated with specific tauopathies
Found specific co-pathologies present within the tau mutants tested
Demonstrated rapid classification capabilities of the biosensor assay for clinical diagnostics

Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
