Mutations of a conserved arginine residue in the Nterminus of tau, found in patients with FTDP-17, affect its binding to dynactin, which is abnormally distributed in the retinal ganglion cell axons of transgenic mice expressing human tau with a mutation in the microtubule-binding domain. PubMed:8391280
Fifth, tau may bind to the p150 subunit of dynactin and thereby facilitate the association of dynactin with microtubules, which stabilizes the interaction of dynein with microtubules and thus supports transport by dynein PubMed:26631930
Another mutation (R5H or R5L) outside the microtubule-binding domain disrupts the binding of tau to the p150 subunit of the dynactin complex — an essential cofactor for the microtubule motor dynein —thereby possibly interfering with general axonal transport PubMed:26631930
