# ''' TTR amyloid fibril '''

Inappropriate TTR foldings cause ~~amyloid depositions~~. Indeed, aggregates formation can be explained by a destabilization of the TTR’s native conformation, namely the tetramer dissociation into an alternative folded monomeric intermediate. The final result is a protein self-assembly. A particular beta-pleated-sheet structure characterizes the proteins ~~that form insoluble fibrils~~. [4]

Inappropriate TTR foldings cause amyloidosis. Indeed, aggregates formation can be explained by a destabilization of the TTR’s native conformation, namely the tetramer dissociation into an alternative folded monomeric intermediate. The final result is a protein self-assembly. A particular beta-pleated-sheet structure characterizes the proteins with amyloidogenic potential. [4]

TTR aggregation into amyloid fibrils leads to insolubility. Consequently, it creates abnormal deposits in the peripheral nerves in the case of FAP, in the central nerves for CNSA, and in heart tissues for FAC and SSA. Therefore, the insoluble proteins alter the corresponding organ and tissue functions, and are unable to be subjected to a proper degradation by cell metabolism.
