Multiple teams find small differences in the 'CAG repeat' bit of the Huntington's disease gene. They don't directly change the huntingtin protein, but do alter the age of symptom onset. What's behind this enigma and what does it mean for patients?
DNA takes centre stage for day 2 of the Huntington's Disease Therapeutics Conference in Palm Springs
A surprising new paper sheds light on the role of the HD gene early in development. Should we worry?
Two recent studies show how a cellular border control system goes wrong in HD, opening new avenues for HD research.
Huntingtin helps fix damaged DNA, a recent study suggests, under the direction of a gene repair protein called ATM.
