“…Indeed, crystal structures of TTR mutations indicate only small conformational changes in the globular form compared to wild type 5,30,31 . The approach was applied to 36 TTR mutations for which either an increased (A25T, 37 V30G, 38 V30M, 5,39,40 D38A, 12 S52P, 41,42 E54G, 15,43 E54K, 43 L55P, 44,45 L58H, 46 T60A, 16,47 E61K, 48 S77Y, 49 Y78F, 50 I84A, 51 I84S, 40 H88S, 52 H88R, 52 E89K, 53 Y114C, 54–57 Y114H, 25 V122I 58 ) or decreased (S85P, 3 H88A, 52 H88F, 52 H88Y, 52 E92P, 40 V94P, 3 R104H, 5 A108I, 59 A108V, 59 A108W, 59 A109V, 59 A109T, 60 T119M, 61 T119W, 3 and T119Y 3 ) tendency for amyloidosis has been reported experimentally. Since experimentally only a tendency for amyloidosis is known it allowed us only a qualitative comparison with calculated stability changes.…”
