Collagen I weakly interacts with the β-sheets of β2-microglobulin and enhances conformational exchange to induce amyloid formation

Abstract: Amyloidogenesis is significant in both protein function and pathology. Amyloid formation of folded, globular proteins is commonly initiated by partial unfolding. However, how this unfolding event is triggered for proteins that are otherwise stable in their native environments is not well understood. The accumulation of the immunoglobulin protein β 2 -microglobulin (β 2 m) into amyloid plaques in the joints of long-term hemodialysis patients is the hallmark of Dialysis Related Amyloidosis (DRA). While β 2 m doe… Show more

“…More recently, studies have used DEST to determine site specific interactions of IDPs with membranes (32), lipopolysaccharides (33), unilamellar vesicles (34), and in self-assembly (35,36). Our laboratory has recently used 15 N-DEST to determine the interaction interfaces on immunoglobulin protein β 2 -microglobulin (β 2 m) for collagen I, which facilitates β 2 m amyloid formation (37).…”
