Unusual structures are present in DNA fragments containing super-long Huntingtin CAG repeats.
In the R6/2 mouse model of Huntington's disease (HD), expansion of the CAG trinucleotide repeat length beyond about 300 repeats induces a novel phenotype associated with a reduction in transcription of the transgene.We analysed the structure of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-generated DNA cont...
