Figure 1. Structures of compounds.
(a) Primary sequence of human IAPP. Wild-type IAPP is C-terminally amidated and has an intramolecular disulfide bond between residues 2 and 7. (b) Chemical structure of ADM-116. (c) Three-dimensional stick (top) and sphere (bottom) model of ADM-116. (d) Pentaquinoline, ADM-|116, in which ADM-116 is extended one residue from the N terminus. Arrows in a,b and d indicate surface-exposed functional moieties. Structures in b and d adapted from a longer oligoquinoline47. (e) Chemical structures of other molecules used in this study.
