Microglobulin protein, molecular model F006 / 9408
Microglobulin protein. Molecular model of the protein beta-2 microglobulin. This protein, with a relatively small molecular mass, is part of the immunoglobulin protein family. It is a cell surface protein, found on nearly all cells in the body. It can aggregate into fibres to form amyloid deposits, especially in patients on long-term dialysis

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular model of Microglobulin protein, specifically the beta-2 microglobulin. With a relatively small molecular mass, this protein belongs to the immunoglobulin protein family and is found on almost all cells in the body. The white background beautifully highlights its complex structure and serves as a reminder of its significance in biology, research, and medicine. The Microglobulin protein has the remarkable ability to aggregate into fibres that form amyloid deposits, particularly observed in patients undergoing long-term dialysis treatment. This visual representation allows us to delve into its tertiary structure, revealing alpha helixes and beta sheets intricately intertwined. Crafted with precision by LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this artwork captures not only the beauty but also the importance of studying proteins at a molecular level. Its cut-out design emphasizes its individuality while symbolizing how it stands out among other biological molecules. In proteomics and biochemistry research fields alike, understanding Microglobulin's role is crucial for advancing healthcare practices. By unraveling its secrets through medical illustrations like this one, scientists can gain valuable insights into diseases associated with abnormal aggregation or malfunctioning of this vital protein.
