Pathogenic D76N Variant of β<sub>2</sub>-Microglobulin: Synergy of Diverse Effects in Both the Native and Amyloid States

β<sub>2</sub>-microglobulin (β2m), the light chain of the MHC-I complex, is associated with dialysis-related amyloidosis (DRA). Recently, a hereditary systemic amyloidosis was discovered, caused by a naturally occurring D76N β2m variant, which showed a structure remarkably similar to the...
