[NMR paper] Evidence for S (331) -G-S-L within the amyloid core of myocilin olfactomedin domain fibrils based on low-resolution 3D solid-state NMR spectra
Myocilin-associated glaucoma is a protein-conformational disorder associated with formation of a toxic amyloid-like aggregate. Numerous destabilizing single point variants, distributed across the myocilin olfactomedin ?-propeller (OLF, myocilin residues 245-504, 30 kDa) are associated with accelerated disease progression. In vitro , wild type (WT) OLF can be promoted to form thioflavin T (ThT)-positive fibrils under mildly destabilizing (37°C, pH 7.2) conditions. Consistent with the notion that...
[NMR paper] Solid-State NMR Structure of Amyloid-? Fibrils
Solid-State NMR Structure of Amyloid-? Fibrils
Amyloid fibrils are involved in a number of diseases and notably play a role in neurodegeneration, where they are present in plaques in the brain. Their structure determination might help in finding ways to interfere with their formation, and ultimately prevent disease, by revealing the structure-function relationship and helping to design molecules targeting initial assembly steps and further propagation. Here, we describe the different steps in NMR protocols which allowed the 3D structure...
