Unique Effect of Cu(II) in the Metal-Induced Amyloid Formation of β-2-Microglobulin
[Image: see text] β-2-Microglobulin (β2m) forms amyloid fibrils in the joints of patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment as a result of kidney failure. In the presence of stoichiometric amounts of Cu(II), β2m self-associates into discrete oligomeric species, including dimers, tetramers, and hexam...
