Kinase inhibitors modulate huntingtin cell localization and toxicity

Abstract

Phosphorylation of the Huntington's disease protein Htt by CK2 leads to Htt nuclear translocation in response to stress. Inhibition of other kinase pathways can restore phosphorylation to hypophosphorylated Htt in Huntington's disease and may lead to a therapeutic strategy.
