Genetic Contributors to Intergenerational CAG Repeat Instability in Huntington’s Disease Knock-In Mice

Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of a CAG trinucleotide repeat in exon 1 of the HTT gene. Longer repeat sizes are associated with increased disease penetrance and earlier ages of onset. Intergenerationally unstable transmissions are common in HD famil...
