Structure of amyloid-β (20-34) with Alzheimer’s-associated isomerization at Asp23 reveals a distinct protofilament interface
In patients with sporadic Alzheimer’s disease part of the Asp23 residues are isomerized to L-isoaspartate (L-isoAsp23). Here the authors present the MicroED structures of wild-type and L-isoAsp23 Aβ 20–34 amyloid fibrils that both form tightly packed cores and self-associate through two distinct int...

| Sumario: | In patients with sporadic Alzheimer’s disease part of the Asp23 residues are isomerized to L-isoaspartate (L-isoAsp23). Here the authors present the MicroED structures of wild-type and L-isoAsp23 Aβ 20–34 amyloid fibrils that both form tightly packed cores and self-associate through two distinct interfaces with one of these interfaces being strengthened by the isoaspartyl modification. |
