An atlas of amyloid aggregation: the impact of substitutions, insertions, deletions and truncations on amyloid beta fibril nucleation

By comprehensively mapping the impact that different classes of mutations (substitutions, insertions, deletions) have on the ability of the amyloid beta peptide to nucleate amyloids, the authors identify a large set of likely pathogenic variants of amyloid beta that are specifically enriched at its...
