Grb2 is regulated by foxd3 and has roles in preventing accumulation and aggregation of mutant huntingtin.
Growth factor receptor protein binding protein 2 (Grb2) is known to be associated with intracellular growth and proliferation related signaling cascades. Huntingtin (Htt), a ubiquitously expressed protein, when mutated, forms toxic intracellular aggregates - the hallmark of Huntington's disease...
