Beta conformation of polyglutamine track revealed by a crystal structure of Huntingtin N-terminal region with insertion of three histidine residues

Huntington disease is an autosomal-dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by a polyglutamine (polyQ) expansion (> 35Q) in the first exon (EX1) of huntingtin protein (Htt). mHtt protein is thought to adopt one or more toxic conformation(s) that are involved in pathogenic interactions in cells...
