Huntington’s Disease: Neural traffic could help understand the disease

by Università di Trento  In Huntington’s Disease, axonal transport is defective and this leads to neuronal degeneration. In this work, we found that the protein mutated in Huntington’s Disease, called huntingtin (HTT), needs to be methylated by the enzyme PRMT6 in order to guarantee an efficient axonal transport and the survival of neural cells (in...
