Novel DNA Aptamers that Bind to Mutant Huntingtin and Modify Its Activity

Novel DNA Aptamers that Bind to Mutant Huntingtin and Modify Its Activity

The CAG repeat expansion that elongates the polyglutamine tract in huntingtin is the root genetic cause of Huntington’s disease (HD), a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder. This seemingly slight change to the primary amino acid sequence alters the physical structure of the mutant protein and alt...
