Abstract excerpt
Cytotoxicity of amyloid fibrils has been shown to depend on their structure. However, specific features of toxic and non-toxic amyloids remain unclear. Here we focus on the relationship between structural characteristics of the fibrils and their cytotoxicity. Bovine carbonic anhydrase B (BCAB) serves as the object of this study because its amyloids reduce cell viability. Limited proteolysis and mass spectrometry...
