  • Title: Formation and dissolution of hen egg white lysozyme amyloid fibrils in protic ionic liquids.
    Author: Byrne N, Angell CA.
    Journal: Chem Commun (Camb); 2009 Mar 07; (9):1046-8. PubMed ID: 19225631.
    Abstract:
    The formation of amyloid fibrils from non-disease-related proteins demonstrates that any protein can adopt this "rogue" form; we show that it is possible to use protic ionic liquids to fibrilize hen egg white lysozyme, and then subsequently to dissolve the fibrils with up to 72% restoration of enzymatic activity.
