Amyloid-Like Fibril Formation by PolyQ Proteins: A Critical Balance between the PolyQ Length and the Constraints Imposed by the Host Protein

Nine neurodegenerative disorders, called polyglutamine (polyQ) diseases, are characterized by the formation of intranuclear amyloid-like aggregates by nine proteins containing a polyQ tract above a threshold length. These insoluble aggregates and/or some of their soluble precursors are thought to pl...
