We then investigated what effect over-expression or knockdown of FKBP51 might have on the interaction of tau with other Hsp90 cochaperones that comprise a mature Hsp90 complex. Surprisingly, we found that FKBP51 over-expression decreased the endogenous association of another Hsp90 pro-folding cochaperone, Aha1, with tau despite increasing Hsp90 binding (Fig. 4C). Endogenous p23 binding to tau however was not detected. Conversely, knockdown of FKBP51 with siRNA increased the association of endogenous Aha1 with tau despite decreasing the number of Hsp90 tau complexes. Moreover, endogenous p23 binding to tau was only detectable when FKBP51 was knocked down (Fig. 4C). PubMed:20071522
