Abstract excerpt
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) is a neurodegenerative disease primarily affecting the brainstem, retina and Purkinje cells of the cerebellum. The disease is caused by a polyglutamine expansion in ataxin-7, a protein found in two complexes TFTC and STAGA, involved in transcriptional regulation. Transcriptional dysregulation has been implicated in the pathology of several polyglutamine diseases. In this...
