Structure of ATTRv-F64S fibrils isolated from skin tissue of a living patient
2025-07-30
Abstract excerpt
Amyloid transthyretin-derived (ATTR) amyloidosis is a degenerative, systemic disease characterized by transthyretin fibril deposition in organs like the heart, kidneys, liver, and skin. We report the first cryo-EM structure of transthyretin fibrils isolated from skin tissue of a living patient carrying a rare genetic mutation (ATTRv F64S). The structure adopts a highly conserved fold previously observed in other A...
