  • Title: [The advances in research on phosphorylation of polyglutamine disease].
    Author: Zhou YF, Jiang H, Tang JG, Tang BS.
    Journal: Zhonghua Yi Xue Yi Chuan Xue Za Zhi; 2008 Aug; 25(4):414-7. PubMed ID: 18683139.
    Abstract:
    Polyglutamine (polyQ) diseases are a group of hereditary neurodegenerative disorders caused by expansion of a glutamine repeat in responsible gene products. To date, the pathogenesis of polyQ diseases is still not very clear, but many researches suggest that phosphorylation of mutant proteins plays a critical role on the process of Huntington's disease, dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy, spinal bulbar muscular atrophy, spinocerebellar ataxia1 and spinocerebellar ataxia 3/Machado-Joseph disease.
