Evolution of Transthyretin [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Evolution of the amino acid sequences of transthyretin (TTR) can provide additional information about its dynamics that both complements and extends the already extensive static structural data. Protein dynamics is largely driven by interactions between the protein itself and the thin water film that covers it.
