Cryo-EM structure of cardiac amyloid fibrils from an immunoglobulin light chain AL amyloidosis patient
Immunoglobulin Light Chain Amyloidosis (AL) is the most common systemic amyloidosis occurring in Western countries. Here the authors present the 4.0 Å cryo-EM structure of light chain AL55 fibrils that were isolated from the heart of an AL systemic amyloidosis patient.
