Huntingtin is a large membrane-associated scaffolding protein that associates with endocytic and exocytic vesicles and modulates their trafficking along cytoskeletal tracks. Although the progression of Huntington’s disease is linked to toxic accumulation

Huntington disease is an adult onset neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric dysfunction, caused by a CAG expansion in the HTT gene. Huntingtin Interacting Protein 14 (HIP14) and Huntingtin Interacting Protein 14-like (HIP14L) are palmitoyl acyltransferases (PATs), enzymes that mediate the post-translational ...

Metallothioneins and copper metabolism are candidate therapeutic targets in Huntington’s disease [PDF]
HD (Huntington's disease) is caused by a polyQ (polyglutamine) expansion in the huntingtin protein, which leads to protein misfolding and aggregation of this protein. Abnormal copper accumulation in the HD brain was first reported more than 15 years ago.

Live axonal transport disruption by mutant huntingtin fragments in Drosophila motor neuron axons [PDF]
Huntington's Disease is a neurodegenerative condition caused by a polyglutamine expansion in thehuntingtin (Htt) protein, which aggregates and also causes neuronal dysfunction. Pathogenic N-terminal httfragments perturb axonal transport in vitro.

The Ubiquitin-Proteasome Pathway in Huntington's Disease
The accumulation of mutant protein is a common feature of neurodegenerative disease. In Huntington's disease, a polyglutamine expansion in the huntingtin protein triggers neuronal toxicity.
