Structural and dynamic studies reveal that the Ala-rich region of ataxin-7 initiates α-helix formation of the polyQ tract but suppresses its aggregation
Ataxin-7 (Atx7) is a disease-related protein associated with the pathogenesis of spinocerebellar ataxia 7, while its polyglutamine (polyQ) tract in N-terminus is the causative source of aggregation and proteinopathy. We investigated the structure, dynamics and aggregation properties of the N-termina...
