Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image   Print3D Amyloid fibrils were suspected for long to be the agents of Amyloid diseases,including Alzheimer’s,Parkinson’s and the prion conditions.But evidence suggests that smaller, often transient and polymorphic oligomers are the toxic entities.Segment of amyloid forming protein alpha-beta crystallin makes oligomeric complex which exhibits properties of other amyloid oligomers.The structure of oligomer shows a cylindrical barrel,made up of six anti-parallel protein strands known as cylindrin.This segment(coloured in black) termed as K11V forms the cylindrin structure. PDB'S are K11V (3SGO), K11V-Br2 (3SGM), K11V-Br8 (3SGN), K11VV2L (3SGP), K11V-TR (3SGR), and GDVIEV (3SGS). Structural highlights hello This is a sample scene created with SAT to color by Group, and another to make a transparent representation of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
