Melanosomal formation of PMEL core amyloid is driven by aromatic residues
PMEL is a pigment cell protein that forms physiological amyloid in melanosomes. Many amyloids and/or their oligomeric precursors are toxic, causing or contributing to severe, incurable diseases including Alzheimer’s and prion diseases. Striking similarities in intracellular formation pathways betwee...
