Abstract excerpt
Huntingtin expression was examined by Western blot and immunoprecipitation studies of lymphoblastoid cell lines from Huntington's disease (HD) homozygotes, heterozygotes, and a phenotypically normal individual with a t(4p16.3;12p13.3) breakpoint in the HD gene. The latter produced a reduced level...
