Genetic interaction between expanded murine Hdh alleles and p53 reveal deleterious effects of p53 on Huntington's disease pathogenesis
Huntingtin, the protein product of the Huntington's disease (HD) gene, is known to interact with the tumor suppressor p53. It has recently been shown that activation of p53 upregulates the level of huntingtin, both in vitro and in vivo, whereas p53 deficiency in HD-transgenic flies and mice has...
