Western blotting analysis of tau isoforms expressed in pinniped brains. Western blotting of TBS-soluble fractions obtained from the forebrains at various ages and treated with alkaline phosphatase. The left lane shows the six isoforms of human tau (recombinantly produced): three 3-repeat tau isoforms (0N3R, 1N3R, and 2N3R) and three 4-repeat tau isoforms (0N4R, 1N4R, and 2N4R). In pinniped brains, five isoforms of tau (1N3R, 2N3R, 0N4R, 1N4R, and 2N4R) were detected using anti-total tau (arrows, a), 3-repeat tau (arrows, b), and 4-repeat tau antibodies (arrows, c)
