Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is one of the polyglutamine (polyQ) diseases, which are caused by a CAG repeat expansion within the coding region of the associated genes. The CAG repeat specifies glutamine, and the expanded polyQ domain with mutation confers dominant toxicity on the protein. Tr...

In Huntington’s disease (HD), expanded HTT CAG repeat length correlates strongly with age at motor onset, indicating that it determines the rate of the disease process leading to diagnostic clinical manifestations. Similarly, in normal individuals, HTT CAG repeat length is correlated with biochemica...

Ongoing CAG expansions in Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) and Huntington disease (HD) brains exacerbate disease.  Expansions involve aberrant repair of mutagenic slipped-DNAs, formed from single-stranded DNAs.  Whether singlestranded DNA-binding proteins prevent or facilitate expansions is unkn...
