Probing the mechanism of transthyretin amyloid fibril formation by site-directed mutagenesis and by in vitro inhibition of amyloid fibril formation /

The mechanism of transthyretin (TTR) amyloid fibril formation was studied by acid-induced denaturation which results in the formation of an intermediate that either undergoes further denaturation or self-assembles into amyloid fibrils. TTR acid denaturation involves a tetramer to monomer transition...
