Alternative splicing of MAPT cassette exon 10 produces tau isoforms with four microtubule-binding repeat domains (4R) upon exon inclusion or three repeats (3R) upon exon skipping. In human neurons, deviations from the ∼1:1 physiological 4R:3R ratio lead to frontotemporal dementia with Parkinsonism l...
