2D Protein Monolayer Unveils Insights into Amyloidosis

Recently, scientists have successfully crafted a 2D protein monolayer using lysozyme molecules, a model protein crucial for understanding complex diseases like Amyloidosis, which involves abnormal protein accumulation in vital organs.

  • Amyloidosis is a rare condition characterized by the accumulation of amyloid, a problematic protein, in various organs, impacting their functionality.
  • Organs such as the heart, kidneys, liver, spleen, nervous system, and digestive tract can be adversely affected by the buildup of amyloid.
  • Lysozyme, a protein found in mucosal secretions and a key component of airway fluid, serves as a model protein for studying diseases like Amyloidosis, leading to multi-organ ....
