The structure of a β2-microglobulin fibril suggests a molecular basis for its amyloid polymorphism
Impaired kidney function can lead to an increase of β2-microglobulin (β2m) serum levels, which can cause β2m aggregation and amyloid fibril formation. Here the authors combine cryo-EM and magic angle spinning NMR measurements to determine the structure of a β2m fibril and they also present the low r...
