A regulatable switch mediates self-association in an immunoglobulin fold
β-2 microglobulin (β2m) is a globular protein that self-associates into fibrillar amyloid deposits in patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy. Formation of these β-sheet–rich assemblies is a fundamental property of polypeptides that can be triggered by diverse conditions. For β2m, oligomerization i...
