This peptide comprises a Cu2+-binding site. Binding of Cu2+ to the peptide induced oxidation of the cysteine and intermolecular dimerization of the peptide. The reduction of Cu2+ to Cu+ by Amyloid beta/A4 Protein Precursor may enhance the production of hydroxyl radicals which in turn may contribute to neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease.ONE-LETTER SEQUENCE: FLHQERMDVCETHLHWHTVAKMOLECULAR FORMULA: C116H173N35O31S2MOLECULAR WEIGHT:2618STORAGE CONDITIONS: -20 5C, CAS REGISTRY NUMBER: [315229-44-8], RESEARCH AREA: Alzheimer's DiseaseREFERENCES: G.Multhaup et al., Science, 271, 1406 (1996)
