1 In future studies, it will be important to determine whether transglutaminases play a role in (1) cross-linking of histone H1 to glutaminyl donors (including polyglutamine domains) in nuclear chromatin, (2) the formation of nuclear aggregates in (CAG)(n)/polyglutamine expansion diseases, (3) DNA laddering and cell death in neurodegenerative diseases and (4) depletion of neuropeptides in vulnerable regions of Huntington"s disease brain. polyglutamine H1.0 linker histone Homo sapiens
