Huntingtin-Associated Protein 1 in Mouse Hypothalamus Stabilizes Glucocorticoid Receptor in Stress Response [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Huntingtin-associated protein 1 (Hap1) was initially identified as a brain-enriched protein that binds to the Huntington’s disease protein, huntingtin. Unlike huntingtin that is ubiquitously expressed in the brain, Hap1 is enriched in the brain with the ...

Detection of alpha-rod protein repeats using a neural network and application to huntingtin.

open access: goldPLoS Computational Biology, 2009
A growing number of solved protein structures display an elongated structural domain, denoted here as alpha-rod, composed of stacked pairs of anti-parallel alpha-helices.

Quantifying mutant huntingtin protein in human cerebrospinal fluid to support the development of huntingtin-lowering therapies. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2023
AbstractHuntington’s disease (HD) is caused by a cytosine adenine guanine-repeat expansion in the huntingtin gene. This results in the production of toxic mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT), which has an elongated polyglutamine (polyQ) stretch near the protein’s N-terminal end.

Inhibition of mitochondrial protein import by mutant huntingtin [PDF]

open access: greenNature Neuroscience, 2014
Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with neuronal loss in Huntington's disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disease caused by an abnormal polyglutamine expansion in huntingtin (Htt). However, the mechanisms linking mutant Htt and mitochondrial dysfunction in HD remain unknown.

The evolution of the huntingtin-associated protein 40 (HAP40) in conjunction with huntingtin [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2020
AbstractBackgroundThe huntingtin-associated protein 40 (HAP40) abundantly interacts with huntingtin (HTT), the protein that is altered in Huntington’s disease (HD). Therefore, we analysed the evolution of HAP40 and its interaction with HTT.ResultsWe found that in amniotes HAP40 is encoded by a single-exon gene, whereas in all other organisms it is ...

Effect of post-mortem delay on N-terminal huntingtin protein fragments in human control and Huntington disease brain lysates. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Huntington disease is associated with elongation of a CAG repeat in the HTT gene that results in a mutant huntingtin protein. Several studies have implicated N-terminal huntingtin protein fragments in Huntington disease pathogenesis.

Cysteine String Protein Controls Two Routes of Export for Misfolded Huntingtin

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are secreted vesicles of diverse size and cargo that are implicated in the cell-to-cell transmission of disease-causing-proteins in several neurodegenerative diseases.
