The B22 Dilemma: Structural Basis for Conformational Differences in Proinsulin B-Chain Arg22 Mutants

Proinsulin has three distinct regions: the well-folded A- and B-chains and the dynamic disordered C-peptide. The highly conserved B-chain is a hotspot for diabetes-associated mutations, including the severe loss-of-function R(B22)Q mutation linked to childhood-onset diabetes. Here, we explore R(B22)...
