A network of genes connects polyglutamine toxicity to ploidy control in yeast

Neurodegeneration is linked to protein aggregation in several human disorders. In Huntington’s disease, the length of a polyglutamine stretch in Huntingtin is correlated to neuronal death. Here we utilize a model based on glutamine stretches of 0, 30 or 56 residues in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to und...
