==Overview==
==Overview==
Alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency, which can lead to both emphysema and liver, disease, is a result of the accumulation of alpha1-antitrypsin polymers, within the hepatocyte. A wealth of biochemical and biophysical data, suggests that alpha1-antitrypsin polymers form via insertion of residues, from the reactive center loop of one molecule into the beta-sheet of, another. However, this long-standing hypothesis has not been confirmed by, direct structural evidence. Here, we describe the first crystallographic, evidence of a beta-strand linked polymer form of alpha1-antitrypsin: the, crystal structure of a cleaved alpha1-antitrypsin polymer.
