Mini-Symposium: PolyQ disorders: From protein function to aggregation



Mini-Symposium on “PolyQ disorders: From protein function to aggregation”
that will take place at IBMC (Porto) on November 30th 2010.

This symposium aims at presenting recent results on the structure and function of proteins involved in polyQ disorders, with a special focus on ataxin-3, the protein associated with Machado-Joseph disease. National and international researchers, actively working in this field will discuss new findings on the role of the non-pathogenic polyQ-carrying proteins and how these contribute to understanding protein aggregation and pathogenesis.

We are sure that the number of different topics covered using state-of-the-art tools for studying protein function, structure and aggregation in vitro, in situ and in vivo will appeal to a broad audience and therefore we are looking forward to seeing you in this exciting mini-symposium on PolyQ disorders: From protein function to aggregation!
