Cryo-EM structure of an ATTRwt amyloid fibril from systemic non-hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis
Abstract
This manuscript reports the structure of a pathologically relevant wild type ATTR amyloid fibril from systemic non-hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis. The comparison of the wild type ATTR fibril with two previous published ex vivo V30M ATTR fibrils highlighted numerous similarities between these different reconstructions, pointing to a common underlying structure for ATTR fibrils despite coming from different mutants and patients.
