Huntingtin fibrils with different toxicity, structure, and seeding potential can be interconverted
The first exon of the huntingtin protein (HTTex1) important in Huntington’s disease (HD) can form cross-β fibrils of varying toxicity. We find that the difference between these fibrils is the degree of entanglement and dynamics of the C-terminal proline-rich domain (PRD) in a mechanism analogous to...
