Ultrasonication-induced Amyloid Fibril Formation of β2-Microglobulin

Article 2005 EN Hybrid

To obtain insight into the mechanism of fibril formation, we examined the effects of ultrasonication, a strong agitator, on beta2-microglobulin (beta2-m), a protein responsible for dialysis-related amyloidosis. Upon sonication of an acid-unfolded beta2-m solution at pH 2.5, thioflavin T fluorescence increased markedly after a lag time of 1-2 h with a simultaneous increase of light scattering. Atom…
