Proteins with Intrinsically Disordered Domains Are Preferentially Recruited to Polyglutamine Aggregates.

Intracellular protein aggregation is the hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases. Aggregates formed by polyglutamine (polyQ)-expanded proteins, such as Huntingtin, adopt amyloid-like structures that are resistant to denaturation. We used a novel purification strategy to isolate aggregates for...
