Alpha1-Antitrypsin Deficiency — A Model for Conformational Diseases

Carrell, Robin W., Lomas, David A.·2002·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Alpha1-antitrypsin is a member of a family of protease inhibitors known as the serpins. Mutations in these molecules can lead to disease, not only because the biologic activity of the protease in tissue is increased, but also because the mutations result in misfolded (i.e., conformationally abnormal) protease molecules that accumulate in tissue. This review article summarizes the action of these protease inhibitors and how mutations lead to their accumulation in particular neurodegenerative disorders such as prion encephalopathies and Alzheimer's disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
