Abstract excerpt
Polyglutamine expansion in huntingtin is the underlying mutation leading to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease. This mutation influences the interaction of huntingtin with different proteins, including huntingtin-interacting protein 1 (HIP1), in which affinity to bind to mutant huntingtin is profoundly reduced. Here we demonstrate that HIP1 colocalizes with markers of clathrin-mediated endocytosis in...
