The entire 11-residue segment KVKVLGDVIEV forms a <scene name='77/771966/K11v_in_black/ | The entire 11-residue segment KVKVLGDVIEV forms a <scene name='77/771966/K11v_in_black/2'>hairpin loop</scene> in the 3D structure of ABC.The six residue segment GDVIEV ,termed <scene name='77/771966/Gdviev_black/1'>G6V</scene>,forms fibrils and microcrystals.The microcrystals enabled us to determine the atomic structure of G6V, which proved to be a standard class 2 steric zipper, essentially an amyloid-like protofilament. | ||
Amyloid fibrils and oligomer are both formed by the hairpin segment KVKVLGDVIEV.K11V forms fibrils similar to those of protein(ABC) on shaking at elevated temperature and also similar to K11V^V2L(K11V-TR).The fibrils diameter range from 20 to 100 nm in electrom microscope.G6V,K11V,K11V-TR are all convertible to amyloid state,as is their parent protein ABC.Segment K11V,K11V-TR,and a sequence variant with Leu replacing Val at position 2(K11V^2L) forms stable oligomers intermediate in size between monomer and fiber. | Amyloid fibrils and oligomer are both formed by the hairpin segment KVKVLGDVIEV.K11V forms fibrils similar to those of protein(ABC) on shaking at elevated temperature and also similar to K11V^V2L(K11V-TR).The fibrils diameter range from 20 to 100 nm in electrom microscope.G6V,K11V,K11V-TR are all convertible to amyloid state,as is their parent protein ABC.Segment K11V,K11V-TR,and a sequence variant with Leu replacing Val at position 2(K11V^2L) forms stable oligomers intermediate in size between monomer and fiber. | ||
