Insulin Hot-Spot Analogs Formed with <i>N</i>-Methylated Amino Acid Residues Inhibit Aggregation of Native Hormone

In this study, <i>N</i>-methylated analogs of hot-spots of insulin were designed and synthesized, in the expectation that they would inhibit the aggregation of both insulin hot-spots and the entire hormone. Synthesis of insulin &#8220;amyloidogenic&#8221; analogs containing <i...
