Abstract

It remains a matter of speculation as to whether the sense CUG-containing RNA and/or the antisense CAG-encoding polyglutamine peptide serves as the pathogenic moiety in Huntington's disease like-2 (HDL2). In this issue of Neuron, Wilburn et al. show that in a HDL2 mouse model, the polyglutamine peptide drives disease progression.
