Competition between inside-out unfolding and pathogenic aggregation in an amyloid-forming β-propeller

Abstract Studies of folded-to-misfolded transitions using model protein systems reveal a range of unfolding needed for exposure of amyloid-prone regions for subsequent fibrillization. Here, we probe the relationship between unfolding and aggregation for glaucoma-associated myocilin. Mutations within...
