A single-chain variable fragment intrabody prevents intracellular polymerization of Z α(1)-antitrypsin while allowing its antiproteinase activity

Mutant Z α(1)-antitrypsin (E342K) accumulates as polymers within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of hepatocytes predisposing to liver disease, whereas low levels of circulating Z α(1)-antitrypsin lead to emphysema by loss of inhibition of neutrophil elastase. The ideal therapy should prevent polymer...
