Abstract
The present invention relates to variants of the general amyloid interaction motif (GAIM) of bacteriophage gene 3 protein (g3p) and fusion proteins thereof. The GAIM variants and fusion proteins of the invention are partially or fully deimmunized and demonstrate superior binding and specificity to a diverse array of amyloid proteins, and exhibit enhanced amyloid remodeling and inhibition of amyloid aggregation. The present invention further relates to nucleic acids, vectors, host cells, and methods of making the GAIM variants and fusion proteins thereof. The present invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods of increasing bacteriophage infectivity, methods of detecting amyloid aggregates, and methods of diagnosing and/or treating a disease associated with misfolded and/or aggregated amyloid protein.
