Open chromatin structure in PolyQ disease-related genes: a potential mechanism for CAG repeat expansion in the normal human population

The human genome contains dozens of genes that encode for proteins containing long poly-glutamine repeats (polyQ, usually encoded by CAG codons) of 10Qs or more. However, only nine of these genes have been reported to expand beyond the healthy variation and cause diseases. To address whether these n...
