Abstract excerpt
Pathological aggregation of essentially dissociated Transthyretin (TTR) monomer proteins, driven by misfolding and self-interaction, is associated with Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) disease. The TTR monomer proteins consist of several fragments that tend to self-aggregate. Recent experimental studies showed that the sequence of residues TTR91-96 plays an important role in self-aggregation. However, the...
