Insights into Dentatorubral-Pallidoluysian Atrophy from a new <i>Drosophila</i> model of disease
2024-12-10
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) is a neurodegenerative disorder that presents with ataxia, dementia and epilepsy. As a member of the polyglutamine family of diseases, DRPLA is caused by abnormal CAG triplet expansion beyond 48 repeats in the protein-coding region of ATROPHIN 1 ( ATN1 ), a transcriptional co-repressor. To better understand DRPLA, we generated new Drosophila lines...
