We have investigated ubiquitinated paired helical filaments, which produce a proteinaceous smear in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. The smear consisted largely of the carboxy-terminal portion of tau and ubiquitin. The ubiquitin-targeted protein was identified as tau in paired helical filaments, and the conjugation sites were localized to the microtubule-binding region. Most ubiquitin in paired helical filaments occurred as a monoubiquitinated form, and only a small proportion of ubiquitin formed multiubiquitin chains. There was a ubiquitin-negative smear, in which tau was much less processed in the amino-terminal portion. This strongly suggests that the amino-terminal processing of tau in paired helical filaments precedes its ubiquitination.
