Scientists Find Previously Unknown Role for Protein Linked to Juvenile Batten Disease
Researchers have identified a previously unknown function for the CLN3 protein, whose defective form underlies juvenile Batten disease. The study, “Role of the Lysosomal Membrane Protein, CLN3, in the Regulation of Cathepsin D Activity,” was published in the Journal of Cellular Biochemistry. Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs),…
