Transcriptional Regulation of the Huntingtin Gene
Huntington’s disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG trinucleotide expansion in the HTT gene, which encodes for an abnormal polyglutamine tract in the huntingtin protein (HTT). This review examines the known mechanisms of HTT gene regulation.

Hsc70-induced changes in clathrin-auxilin cage structure suggest a role for clathrin light chains in cage disassembly [PDF]
The molecular chaperone, Hsc70, together with its co-factor, auxilin, facilitates the ATP-dependent removal of clathrin during clathrin-mediated endocytosis in cells.

Taking a Break From Huntingtin [PDF]
Three groups have forged an important collaboration to test the utility of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) as a therapeutic modality for the treatment of Huntington's disease (HD), a fatal neurodegenerative disease manifesting in ~75,000 individuals in the United States and Europe alone.1 HD is one of a group of dominantly inherited neurodegenerative

Characterization of the Huntingtin gene promoter and Huntingtin transcriptional regulation
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a late onset, neurological, autosomal dominant genetic disorder. Despite being associated to a defined genetic mutation within the huntingtin gene (HTT), little is known about its transcriptional regulation. HTT is expressed, at varying levels, throughout the body.

Polyglutamine (polyQ) tract length expansion (≥ 36 residues) within the N‐terminal exon‐1 of Huntingtin (Httex1) leads to Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative condition marked by the presence of intranuclear Htt inclusions.
