Essential Role of Histidine for Rapid Copper(II)-Mediated Disassembly of Neurokinin B Amyloid
Neurokinin B is a tachykinin peptide involved in a diverse range of neuronal functions. It rapidly forms an amyloid, which is considered physiologically important for efficient packing into dense core secretory vesicles within hypothalamic neurons. Disassembly of the amyloid is thought to require th...
