Systematic identification of pH-sensing amyloid core motifs reveals a widespread mechanism for reversible protein assembly upon stress

Unlike irreversible pathological amyloids, reversible fibrils can be regulated via pH-sensing core motifs, characterized by amyloid properties unleashed upon stress-induced protonation of critical residues.

Unlike irreversible pathological amyloids, reversible fibrils can be regulated via pH-sensing core motifs, characterized by amyloid properties unleashed upon stress-induced protonation of critical residues. Here, we combined bioinformatic predictions and an in vitro validation…
