Publication Abstract from PubMedHuntington and related neurological diseases result from expansion of a polyglutamine (polyQ) tract. The linear lattice model for the structure and binding properties of polyQ proposes that both expanded and normal polyQ tracts in the preaggregation state are random-coil structures but that an expanded polyQ repeat contains a larger number of epitopes recognized by antibodies or other proteins. The crystal structure of polyQ bound to MW1, an antibody against polyQ, reveals that polyQ adopts an extended, coil-like structure. Consistent with the linear lattice model, multimeric MW1 Fvs bind more tightly to longer than to shorter polyQ tracts and, compared with monomeric Fv, bind expanded polyQ repeats with higher apparent affinities.
