Site-specific single point mutation by anthranilic acid in hIAPP(8–37) enhances anti-amyloidogenic activity

Amylin or hIAPP, together with insulin, plays a significant role in glucose metabolism. However, it undergoes β-sheet rich amyloid formation associated with pancreatic β-cell dysfunction leading to type-2 diabetes (T2D). Recent studies suggest that restricting β-sheet formation in it may halt amyloi...
