BACKGROUND: Tau is a key microtubule-associated protein that plays an important role in the formation of microtubules in axons (Binder et al. 1985) . Six tau isoforms have been identified as products of a single gene produced by alternative mRNA splicing (Goedert 1990) . Tau mutations have been implicated in many neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) , Pick’s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy. It has been well documented that hyperphosphorylated tau is a major component of paired helical filaments in AD brain (Lee 1995) . Serine 416 has been demonstrated to be a major phosphorylation site in vitro by CaM kinase II (Steiner at al. 1990) .
