Abstract The polypeptide hormone islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) forms islet amyloid in type 2 diabetes, a process which contributes to pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and death. Not all species form islet amyloid and the ability to do so correlates with the primary sequence. Humans form islet amyloid, but baboon IAPP has not been studied. The baboon peptide differs from human IAPP at three positions containing K1I, H18R, and A25T substitutions.
