Huntingtin is a disease gene linked to Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of striatal neurons. This is thought to be caused by an expanded, unstable trinucleotide repeat in the huntingtin gene, which translates as a polyglutamine repeat in the protein product. A fairly broad range in the number of trinucleotide repeats has been identified in normal controls, and repeat numbers in excess of 40 have been described as pathological.

Western Blot (WB) of anti-HTT antibody
|
|
Anti-Huntingtin pS421 Antibody - Western Blot. Western blot analysis after AKT and phosphatase treatment is shown using Affinity Purified anti-Huntingtin pS421 antibody. In A) untreated lysates from N2A and 293A cells were stained directly using anti-Huntingtin pS421 antibody. Full length staining of Huntingtin is noted, albeit at low levels of expression, as well as a strongly staining band at 200 kD that may represent staining of truncated protein. In B) staining is shown after immunoprecipitation using a monoclonal antibody (Mab2166) followed by AKT treatment (to phosphorylate), along with untreated, and phosphatase (PP) treated (dephosphorylate) immunoprecipitated. Full length phosphorylated huntingtin is clearly detected in these immunopurified samples (except dephosphorylated). In C) lysates are treated directly with AKT or PP to alter the phosphorylation status of Htt. Personal communication, Simon Warby, CMMT, Vancouver, BC.

Anti-Huntingtin pS421 Antibody - Western Blot. Western blot analysis is shown using Affinity Purified anti-Huntingtin pS421 antibody to detect endogenous protein present in an unstimulated human PC-3 whole cell lysate (arrowhead). Comparison to a molecular weight marker indicates a band of ~190 kD corresponding to truncated human Huntingtin protein. The blot was incubated with a 1:1000 dilution of the antibody at room temperature followed by detection using standard techniques. Personal communication,.

NCBI Summary for HTT
|
|
Huntingtin is a disease gene linked to Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of striatal neurons. This is thought to be caused by an expanded, unstable trinucleotide repeat in the huntingtin gene, which translates as a polyglutamine repeat in the protein product. A fairly broad range in the number of trinucleotide repeats has been identified in normal controls, and repeat numbers in excess of 40 have been described as pathological. The huntingtin locus is large, spanning 180 kb and consisting of 67 exons. The huntingtin gene is widely expressed and is required for normal development. It is expressed as 2 alternatively polyadenylated forms displaying different relative abundance in various fetal and adult tissues. The larger transcript is approximately 13.7 kb and is expressed predominantly in adult and fetal brain whereas the smaller transcript of approximately 10.3 kb is more widely expressed. The genetic defect leading to Huntington's disease may not necessarily eliminate transcription, but may confer a new property on the mRNA or alter the function of the protein. One candidate is the huntingtin-associated protein-1, highly expressed in brain, which has increased affinity for huntingtin protein with expanded polyglutamine repeats. This gene contains an upstream open reading frame in the 5' UTR that inhibits expression of the huntingtin gene product through translational repression. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

UniProt Comments for HTT
|
|
Huntingtin: may play a role in microtubule-mediated transport or vesicle function. Widely expressed with the highest level of expression in the brain (nerve fibers, varicosities, and nerve endings). In the brain, the regions where it can be mainly found are the cerebellar cortex, the neocortex, the striatum, and the hippocampal formation. Defects are the cause of Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of striatal neurons. This is thought to be caused by an expanded, unstable trinucleotide repeat in the Huntingtin gene, which translates as a polyglutamine repeat in the protein product. The Huntingtin locus is large, spanning 180 kb and consisting of 67 exons. The Huntingtin gene is widely expressed and is required for normal development. It is expressed as 2 alternatively polyadenylated isoforms displaying different relative abundance in various fetal and adult tissues.
