== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/LYSC_HUMAN LYSC_HUMAN] Defects in LYZ are a cause of amyloidosis type 8 (AMYL8) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/105200 105200]; also known as systemic non-neuropathic amyloidosis or Ostertag-type amyloidosis. AMYL8 is a hereditary generalized amyloidosis due to deposition of apolipoprotein A1, fibrinogen and lysozyme amyloids. Viscera are particularly affected. There is no involvement of the nervous system. Clinical features include renal amyloidosis resulting in nephrotic syndrome, arterial hypertension, hepatosplenomegaly, cholestasis, petechial skin rash.<ref>PMID:8464497</ref> 
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/LYSC_HUMAN LYSC_HUMAN] Lysozymes have primarily a bacteriolytic function; those in tissues and body fluids are associated with the monocyte-macrophage system and enhance the activity of immunoagents.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
To understand the mechanism of amyloid fibril formation of a protein, we examined wild-type and three mutant human lysozymes containing both amyloidogenic and non-amyloidogenic proteins: I56T (amyloidogenic); EAEA, which has four additional residues (Glu-Ala-Glu-Ala-) at the N-terminus located on a beta-structure; and EAEA-I56T, which is an I56T mutant of EAEA. All formed amyloid-like fibrils through an in the increase contents of alpha-helix with increasing concentration of ethanol. The order of propensity for amyloid-like fibril formation in highly concentrated ethanol solution is EAEA-I56T &gt; EAEA &gt; I56T &gt; wild-type. This order is almost the reverse of the order of conformational stability of these proteins, wild-type &gt; EAEA &gt; I56T &gt; EAEA-I56T. The important views in this work are as follows. (i) Artificially modified proteins formed amyloid fibrils in vitro. This means that amyloid formation is a generic property of polypeptide chains. (ii) The amyloidogenic mutation Ile56 to Thr caused the destabilization and promoted fibril formation in the wild-type and EAEA human lysozymes, indicating that instability facilitates amyloid formation. (iii) The mutant protein EAEA human lysozyme had higher propensity for fibril formation than the amyloidogenic mutant protein, indicating that amyloid formation is controlled not only by stability but also by other factors. In this case, appending polypeptide chains to a beta-structure accelerated amyloid formation.
