Conformational Variability of Amyloid-β and the Morphological Diversity of Its Aggregates
Protein folding is the most fundamental and universal example of biomolecular self-organization and is characterized as an intramolecular process. In contrast, amyloidogenic proteins can interact with one another, leading to protein aggregation. The energy landscape of amyloid fibril formation is ch...
