== Function ==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/1433S_HUMAN 1433S_HUMAN]] Adapter protein implicated in the regulation of a large spectrum of both general and specialized signaling pathways. Binds to a large number of partners, usually by recognition of a phosphoserine or phosphothreonine motif. Binding generally results in the modulation of the activity of the binding partner. When bound to KRT17, regulates protein synthesis and epithelial cell growth by stimulating Akt/mTOR pathway (By similarity).  p53-regulated inhibitor of G2/M progression.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Current molecular hypotheses have yet to deliver marketable treatments for Alzheimer's disease (AD), arguably due to a lack of basic knowledge of AD biology, and an overreliance on conventional drug modalities. Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are emerging drug targets, which show promise for the treatment of e.g. cancer, but are still underexploited for treating neurodegenerative diseases. 14-3-3 binding to phosphorylated Tau is a promising PPI drug target based on its reported destabilizing effect on microtubules, leading to enhanced neurofibrillary tangle formation as a potential cause of AD-related neurodegeneration. Inhibition of 14-3-3/Tau may therefore be neuroprotective. Previously, we reported the development of modified peptide inhibitors of 14-3-3/Tau using a novel structure-guided approach. Here, we report further efforts to optimize the binding mode and activity of our modified Tau peptides through a combination of chemical synthesis, biochemical assays, X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy studies. Most notably, we were able to characterize two different high-affinity binding modes, both of which inhibited 14-3-3-binding to full-length PKA-phosphorylated Tau protein in vitro. Our findings, besides producing useful tool inhibitor compounds for studying 14-3-3/Tau, have enhanced our understanding of the molecular parameters for inhibiting 14-3-3/Tau, which are important milestones toward the establishment of our 14-3-3 PPI hypothesis.
