-β-Amyloid (1-40), england mutation

[Arg6]-β-Amyloid (1-40), england mutation is a biological active peptide. (Several mutations in the beta amyloid precursor gene cause autosomal dominant Alzheimer's Disease in a number of kindreds. Among them, the English mutation, with His at position 6 replaced with Arg, was reported to accelerate the kinetics of oligomers formation which act as fibril seeds and are more toxic to cultured neuronal cells.)
