  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP) shows dominant inheritance and is characterized by systemic accumulation of amyloid fibril. In Japanese, Portuguese and Swedish type (type I FAP), abnormal transthyretin (TTR, also called prealbumin) with a single amino acid replacement of methionine for valine at position 30 (30Val→Met) is thought to lead to amyloid fibril formation (Fig. 1). The abnormal TTR can be detected by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and the mutant TTR gene can be also detected by Southern hybridization analysis (Fig. 2).
