Looking at align.el, there are several reference on lower case mode
names:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(defcustom align-tex-modes
  '(tex-mode plain-tex-mode latex-mode slitex-mode)
  "A list of modes whose syntax resembles TeX (and family)."
  :type '(repeat symbol)
  :group 'align)
[...]
(defcustom align-rules-list
[...]
    (tex-tabbing-separator
     (regexp   . ,(lambda (end reverse)
                    (align-match-tex-pattern "\\\\[=>]" end reverse)))
     (group    . (1 2))
     (modes    . align-tex-modes)
     (repeat   . t)
     (run-if   . ,(lambda ()
                    (eq major-mode 'latex-mode))))
[...]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
For the time being, please change the value of these customize options.
