Decoding the Structural Bases of D76N ß2-Microglobulin High Amyloidogenicity through Crystallography and Asn-Scan Mutagenesis
D76N is the first natural variant of human β-2 microglobulin (β2m) so far identified. Contrary to the wt protein, this mutant readily forms amyloid fibres in physiological conditions, leading to a systemic and severe amyloidosis. Although the Asp76Asn mutant has been extensively characterized, the m...
