- Abstract: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig's disease, is characterized by motor neuron death, with average survival times of two to five years. One cause of this disease is the misfolding of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), a phenomenon influenced by point mutations spanning the protein. Herein, we used an epitope‐specific high‐throughput screen to identify a peptide ligand that stabilizes the SOD1 native conformation and accelerates its folding by a factor of 2.5. This strategy may be useful for fundamental studies of protein energy landscapes as well as designing new classes of therapeutics. Abstract : Amyotrophe Lateralsklerose wird unter anderem durch die Fehlfaltung von Superoxid‐Dismutase 1 (SOD1) ausgelöst, verursacht durch Punktmutationen im Protein. Durch ein Epitop‐spezifisches Hochdurchsatz‐Screening wurde ein Peptid‐Ligand identifiziert, der die native Konformation von SOD1 stabilisiert und die Faltung 2.5‐fach beschleunigt.
