(Lys²²)-Amyloid β-Protein (1-40)
Catalog No. A23900

The Italian mutation of β-amyloid 1-40 (E22K) exhibits faster aggregation kinetics and greater neurotoxicity compared to the wild-type peptide. Solid-state NMR studies (Masuda et al.) suggest this enhanced toxicity may be linked to the formation of a salt bridge between Lys²² and Asp²³ in a minor conformer. Similar to the Arctic, Flemish, and Dutch Aβ variants, the Italian mutant also shows significantly reduced degradation by the Aβ-cleaving enzyme neprilysin, contributing to its pathological accumulation.
