Developing viral tools and regulatable gene expression systems to study the dynamics of polyglutamine disease inclusions
Co-chaperone proteins are important mediators of protein triage, deciding whether misfolded proteins should be degraded or refolded. The accumulation of misfolded proteins is thought to be a major contributing factor to polyglutamine diseases, where the expansion of a polyglutamine tract in the dise...
