Investigating Mutations to Reduce Huntingtin Aggregation by Increasing Htt-N-Terminal Stability and Weakening Interactions with PolyQ Domain

Figure 1

Chain B from PDB 3IO6. Orange residues are positions 1–370 and part of the Htt amino terminal region. The red positions 371–387 are the 17 residues of the Htt-N-terminal region implicated in the formation of amyloids (MATLEKLMKAFESLKSF). The blue residues are GLN repeats attached to the N-terminal region.
