The evolutionary history of the polyQ tract in huntingtin sheds light on its functional pro-neural activities

Huntington’s disease is caused by a pathologically long (>35) CAG repeat located in the first exon of the Huntingtin gene (HTT). While pathologically expanded CAG repeats are the focus of extensive investigations, non-pathogenic CAG tracts in protein-coding genes are less well characterized. Here...
