abstract：:The mechanisms by which polyglutamine expansion causes common features of neuronal death remain unclear. Here we describe an approach for delivering polyglutamine expansions directly into cultured sympathetic neurons. Glutamine (Q) residues (n = 10, 22, 30) were conjugated with a peptide possessing translocation prope...
