Motor uncoordination and neuropathology in a transgenic mouse model of Machado–Joseph disease lacking intranuclear inclusions and ataxin-3 cleavage products
Machado–Joseph disease (MJD) is a late-onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by a polyglutamine (polyQ) expansion in the ataxin-3 protein. We generated two transgenic mouse lineages expressing the expanded human ataxin-3 under the control of the CMV promoter: CMVMJD83 and CMVMJD94, carrying Q83 an...
