TL;DR
It is demonstrated that ENAH–PRD interactions modulate HTT1a aggregation dynamics and the framework for investigating how EVH1-containing proteins may influence HTT1a proteostasis and neurotoxicity in Huntington′s disease is established.
The solution NMR structure of the unliganded Mena EVH1 domain is reported, which contains a conserved aromatic triad that forms the canonical polyproline-binding cleft that supports a model in which Mena functions as a scaffold to spatially organize PTP1B within EGFR signaling complexes.
Abstract Huntington's disease is caused by the trinucleotide repeat CAG expansion in the huntingtin gene, resulting in an N-terminal polyglutamine (polyQ) tract that renders the huntingtin protein (HTT) prone to misfolding and aggregation. Although polyQ expansion is an intrinsic driver of aggregation, the folding traj...
The RNA-binding protein YTHDC1 is identified as an ATP-independent molecular chaperone that prevents harmful protein aggregation, revealing a link between RNA regulation and protein quality control in neurodegeneration.
The results identify a sequence-encoded mechanism linking disease-associated mutations to altered condensate behavior and amyloid aggregation, providing molecular insights into how aberrant phase transitions may contribute to hnRNPA2B1-associated disease.
It is revealed that NTD–CTD electrostatic crosstalk acts as the key modulator of α-synuclein phase separation, while NAC–NAC interactions play an auxiliary role, both of which synergistically govern α-synuclein phase separation.
This study suggests that polyG protein aggregates in NIID may shift the global RNA splicing profile toward an immature state, potentially through the sequestration of key splicing factors, such as SF3B4, thereby identifying new avenues for understanding the pathogenic mechanisms underlying NIID.
