description | The A<inline-formula><math display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>β</mi><mrow><mn>4</mn><mo>−</mo><mn>42</mn></mrow></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula> peptide is a major beta-amyloid species in the human brain, forming toxic aggregates related to Alzheimer’s Disease. It also strongly chelates Cu(II) at the N-terminal Phe-Arg-His ATCUN motif, as demonstrated in A<inline-formula><math display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>β</mi><mrow><mn>4</mn><mo>−</mo><mn>16</mn></mrow></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula> and A<inline-formula><math display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>β</mi><mrow><mn>4</mn><mo>−</mo><mn>9</mn></mrow></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula> model peptides. The resulting complex resists ROS generation and exchange processes and may help protect synapses from copper-related oxidative damage.
