Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Each monoclonal antibody light chain associated with AL amyloidosis has a unique sequence. Defining how these sequences drive amyloid deposition could facilitate faster diagnosis and lead to new treatments. METHODS: Light chain sequences are collected in the AL-Base repository. Monoclonal sequences from AL amyloidosis, multiple myeloma and the healthy polyclonal immune repertoire were compared to...
