Oligomerization by co-assembly of β-amyloid and α-synuclein
Aberrant self-assembly of an intrinsically disordered protein is a pathological hallmark of protein misfolding diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases (AD and PD, respectively). In AD, the 40–42 amino acid-long extracellular peptide, β-amyloid (Aβ), self-assembles into oligomers, whic...
