Tau phosphorylation also relieves inhibition of lysosome transport by tau in neurons and alters the distribution of lysosomes in axons.

Cooperatively-bound tau inhibits kinesin-1 (KIF5B) motility, and inhibition is relieved by phosphorylation. In contrast, kinesin-3 (KIF1A) is strongly inhibited by both phosphoresistive and phosphomimetic tau.

Similarly, phosphorylation blocks the ability of tau to bind cooperatively in neurons
