Are there genetic connections between neurodegenerative diseases
... Proteins are the molecules that do the work of the cell. They start out a bit like DNA - as long strings of repeating chemicals that we represent as letters. Proteins use a larger alphabet though - 22 letters. One of the protein ‘letters’ is Neurodegenerative diseases glutamine, which we abbreviate ...
