Progress study on the mechanism of CAG repeats dynamic mutation in polyQ disease
Polyglutamine (polyQ) disease is a group of neurodegenerative disorders caused by abnormal expansion of CAG repeats within coding regions of certain causative genes, which are translated into a series of abnormally expanded polyQ tracts causing cytotoxicity. So far, nine diseases caused by expanded...
