  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Possible molecular mechanisms of the Huntington disease and other CAG repeat diseases are discussed. The physiological function of the Huntington disease protein is unknown. Part of its amino acid sequence has some resemblance to the sequence of the helix-loop-helix type of DNA-binding domain. Therefore, the protein might be a transcription factor and malfunction of the protein might damage the process of transcription. The CAG repeat codes for a glutamine repeat. A synthetic oligo-glutamine polypeptide folds into a stableβ-sheet, possibly by interaction of more than one molecule.
