Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative, age-onset disorder caused by a CAG DNA expansion in exon 1 of the HTT gene, resulting in a polyglutamine expansion in the huntingtin protein. Nuclear accumulation of mutant huntingtin is a hallmark of

Huntington disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG expansion within the huntingtin gene that encodes a polymorphic glutamine tract at the amino terminus of the huntingtin protein. HD is one of nine polyglutamine expansion disease

After the successful cloning of the first gene for a polyglutamine disease in 1991, the expanded polyglutamine tract in the nine polyglutamine disease proteins became an obvious therapeutic target. Early hypotheses were that misfolded, precipitated p

Among the known pathways of protein nuclear import, the karyopherin β2/transportin pathway is only the second to have a defined nuclear localization signal (NLS) consensus. Huntingtin, a 350-kDa protein, has defined roles in the nucleus, as well as

Cofilin protein is involved in regulating the actin cytoskeleton during typical steady state conditions, as well as during cell stress conditions where cofilin saturates F-actin forming cofilin-actin rods. Cofilin can enter the nucleus through an act

Two serine residues within the first 17 amino acid residues of huntingtin (N17) are crucial for modulation of mutant huntingtin toxicity in cell and mouse genetic models of Huntington's disease. Here we show that the stress-dependent phosphorylation

Nuclear accumulation of the polyglutamine-expanded mutant huntingtin protein remains one of the most predictive cell biological phenotypes of Huntington’s disease (HD) progression in patient brain samples and mouse models of the disease. Yet, the r
