Abstract excerpt
Accumulation of mutant polyglutamine proteins in intraneuronal inclusions is a hallmark of polyglutamine diseases. Impairment of protein clearance systems and sequestration of clearance-related proteins into inclusions occur in many protein folding diseases, including polyglutamine diseases. The ubiquitin-binding and proteasome adaptor protein UBQLN2 participates in protein homeostasis and localizes to inclusions...
