Ataxin-3 plays a role in mouse myogenic differentiation through regulation of integrin subunit levels. [PDF]
During myogenesis several transcription factors and regulators of protein synthesis and assembly are rapidly degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS).

Mitochondrial Morphology, Function and Homeostasis Are Impaired by Expression of an N-terminal Calpain Cleavage Fragment of Ataxin-3 [PDF]
Alterations in mitochondrial morphology and function have been linked to neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson disease, Alzheimer disease and Huntington disease.

Differential toxicity of ataxin-3 isoforms in Drosophila models of Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 [PDF]
The most commonly inherited dominant ataxia, Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 (SCA3), is caused by a CAG repeat expansion that encodes an abnormally long polyglutamine (polyQ) repeat in the disease protein ataxin-3, a deubiquitinase.

Identification and functional dissection of localization signals within ataxin-3
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) or Machado–Joseph disease (MJD) belongs to a group of autosomal dominant neurodegenerative diseases, which are caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine repeat in the affected protein, in this case ataxin-3. Ataxin-3

Gene Expression Profiling in Ataxin-3 Expressing Cell Lines Reveals Distinct Effects of Normal and Mutant Ataxin-3 [PDF]
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a late-onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine tract within the gene product, ataxin-3. We have previously shown that mutant ataxin-3 causes upregulation of inflammatory genes in transgenic SCA3 cell lines and human SCA3 pontine neurons.

Physiological and pathophysiological characteristics of ataxin-3 isoforms. [PDF]
Ataxin-3 is a deubiquitinating enzyme and the affected protein in the neurodegenerative disorder Machado-Joseph disease (MJD). The ATXN3 gene is alternatively spliced, resulting in protein isoforms that differ in the number of ubiquitin-interacting motifs.
