Molecular insights into the role of the polyalanine region in mediating PHOX 2B aggregation
7 Apr 2019
Abstract excerpt
About 90% of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) patients show polyalanine triplet expansions in the coding region of transcription factor PHOX2B, which renders this protein an intriguing target to understand the insurgence of this syndrome and for the design of a novel therapeutical approach. Consistently with the role of PHOX2B as a transcriptional regulator, it is reasonable that a general...
