Subcellular localization of the Huntington's disease gene product in cell lines by immunofluorescence and biochemical subcellular fractionation
1 Aug 1996
Abstract excerpt
Huntington's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, which is caused by expansion of a polymorphic (CAG)n repeat in the coding region of the Huntington's disease gene. The function of huntingtin has not been elucidated so far. Accordingly, detailed subcellular localization studies remain useful. In an immunohistochemical study, we have reported huntingtin to be present in the cytoplasm of cells in...
