Fatal amyloid formation in a patient’s antibody light chain is caused by a single point mutation

In systemic light chain amyloidosis, an overexpressed antibody light chain (LC) forms fibrils which deposit in organs and cause their failure. While it is well-established that mutations in the LC’s V(L) domain are important prerequisites, the mechanisms which render a patient LC amyloidogenic are i...
