Natural variants in <i>C. elegans atg-5</i> 3’UTR uncover divergent effects of autophagy on polyglutamine aggregation in different tissues
2019-06-13
Abstract excerpt
Diseases caused by protein misfolding and aggregation, in addition to cell selectivity, often exhibit variation among individuals in the age of onset, progression, and severity of disease. Genetic variation has been shown to contribute to such clinical variation. We have previously found that protein aggregation-related phenotypes in a model organism, C. elegans , can be modified by destabilizing polymorphisms in...
