Intrinsic blue-green fluorescence in amyloyd fibrils

Proteins and polypeptides containing a high proportion of β-sheets have been recently reported to exhibit, in their amyloid aggregated states, an intrinsic fluorescence in the blue-green range of wavelength where the aromatic residues do not emit. Lately, growing attention has been devoted to the id...
