Structure of Membrane-Bound Huntingtin Exon 1 Reveals Membrane Interaction and Aggregation Mechanisms

Huntington’s Disease is caused by a polyQ expansion in the first exon of huntingtin (Httex1). Membrane interaction of huntingtin is of physiological and pathological relevance. Using EPR and ODNP, we find that the N-terminal residues 3-13 of wild-type Httex1(Q25) form a membrane-bound, amphipathic α...
