Atomic resolution structure of CAG RNA repeats: structural insights and implications for the trinucleotide repeat expansion diseases
CAG repeats occur predominantly in the coding regions of human genes, which suggests their functional importance. In some genes, these sequences can undergo pathogenic expansions leading to neurodegenerative polyglutamine (poly-Q) diseases. The mutant transcripts containing expanded CAG repeats poss...
