Distinct cellular toxicity of two mutant huntingtin mRNA variants due to translation regulation

Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by CAG repeat expansion within exon1 of the HTT gene. The gene generates two mRNA variants that carry either a short or long 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) while encoding the same protein. It remains unknown whether the two mRNA varian...
