Abstrakt     In this paper we analyzed microarray data of patients with Huntington's disease (HD). First, we preprocessed the data by using ribosomal genes expression levels as a way of normalization. After this, Predictive Clustering Trees (PCTs) were used to identify useful gene expression profiles and also to connect patient records with gene expression levels. In the end patients' pathological characteristics which created the biggest difference in gene expression levels were identified, but also genes that could serve as a way of differentiating between patients and control subjects, or presymptomatic and symptomatic patients
