Experimental and Computational Analysis of Polyglutamine-Mediated Cytotoxicity

Expanded polyglutamine proteins are known to be the causative agents of a number of human neurodegenerative diseases but the molecular basis of their cytoxicity is still poorly understood. Polyglutamine tracts may impede the activity of the proteasome, and evidence from single cell imaging suggests...
