Isomerization of Asp is essential for assembly of amyloid-like fibrils of αA-crystallin-derived peptide.
Post-translational modifications are often detected in age-related diseases associated with protein misfolding such as cataracts from aged lenses. One of the major post-translational modifications is the isomerization of aspartate residues (L-isoAsp), which could be non-enzymatically and spontaneous...
