Deskripsi
The dynamics of chromatin and transcriptional changes underlying Huntington’s disease remain poorly understood. Here the authors use a Huntington’s mouse model to profile the striatal chromatin landscape, finding that the Huntington’s mutation accelerates age-dependent epigenetic and transcriptional changes, and locally affects 3D chromatin organization.
