Amyloidogenic 60–71 deletion/ValThr insertion mutation of apolipoprotein A-I generates a new aggregation-prone segment that promotes nucleation through entropic effects

The N-terminal fragment of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), comprising residues 1–83, contains three segments prone to aggregation: residues 14–22, 53–58, and 67–72. We previously demonstrated that residues 14–22 are critical in apoA-I fibril formation while residues 53–58 entropically drove the nucleat...
