The Machado–Joseph disease deubiquitylase ataxin‐3 interacts with LC3C/GABARAP and promotes autophagy
17 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
The pathology of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, also known as Machado-Joseph disease, is triggered by aggregation of toxic ataxin-3 (ATXN3) variants containing expanded polyglutamine repeats. The physiological role of this deubiquitylase, however, remains largely unclear. Our recent work showed that ATX-3, the nematode orthologue of ATXN3, together with the ubiquitin-directed segregase CDC-48, regulates longevity...
