Investigating a Novel Neurodegenerative Disease Toxic Mechanism Involving Lipid Binding Specificity of Amyloid Oligomers

et al.

Abstract: Exploring the mechanisms underlying the toxicity of amyloid oligomers (AOs) presents a significant opportunity for discovering cures and developing treatments for neurodegenerative diseases. Recently, using a combination of ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (IMS-MS) and X-ray crystallography (XRC), we showed that the peptide KVKVLWDVIEV, which is the G95W mutant of αB-Crystallin (90−100) and abbreviated as G6W, self-assembles up to a dodecamer that structurally resembles lipid transport proteins.
