Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Huntington’s Disease (HD) is a dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disease caused by alterations in the huntingtin gene ( htt ). Transcriptional dysregulation is an early event in HD progression. Protein acetylation and methylation particularly on histones regulates chromatin structure thereby preventing or facilitating transcription. Although protein acetylation has been found to affect HD...
