Multiscale Models for Fibril Formation: Rare Events Methods, Microkinetic Models, and Population Balances
Amyloid fibrils are thought to grow by a two-step dock-lock mechanism. However, previous simulations of fibril formation (i) overlook the bi-molecular nature of the docking step and obtain rates with first-order units, or (ii) superimpose the docked and locked states when computing the potential of...
