Assessing polyglutamine tract aggregation in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.
Proteome integrity is a prerequisite for cellular functionality and organismal viability. Its compromise is considered an inherent part of the aging process and has been associated with the onset of age-related, neurodegenerative pathologies. Although the molecular underpinnings of protein homeostasis (proteostasis) have been extensively studied, several aspects of its regulation remain elusive. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has emerged as a versatile, heterologous model organism to study the dynamics of aggregation-prone human proteins in vivo. Here, we describe an experimental pipeline for the analysis of polyglutamine (polyQ) tract aggregation, as a measure of the state of proteostasis, during aging.
期刊介绍:
For over fifty years, Methods in Cell Biology has helped researchers answer the question "What method should I use to study this cell biology problem?" Edited by leaders in the field, each thematic volume provides proven, state-of-art techniques, along with relevant historical background and theory, to aid researchers in efficient design and effective implementation of experimental methodologies. Over its many years of publication, Methods in Cell Biology has built up a deep library of biological methods to study model developmental organisms, organelles and cell systems, as well as comprehensive coverage of microscopy and other analytical approaches.
