The evolution of the huntingtin-associated protein 40 (HAP40) in conjunction with huntingtin

Abstract Background The huntingtin-associated protein 40 (HAP40) abundantly interacts with huntingtin (HTT), the protein that is altered in Huntington’s disease (HD). Therefore, we analysed the evolution of HAP40 and its interaction with HTT. Results We found that in amniotes HAP40 is encoded by a s...
