Modulation Effects of Fe<sup>3+</sup>, Zn<sup>2+</sup>, and Cu<sup>2+</sup> Ions on the Amyloid Fibrillation of α-Synuclein: Insights from a FTIR Investigation

Amyloid fibrillation of α-synuclein is implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease and heavy metal ions such as Fe<sup>3+</sup>, Zn<sup>2+</sup>, and Cu<sup>2+</sup> are known to be involved in the process. In this work, we explored the use of FTIR spect...
