Fibrillization of 40-residue β-Amyloid Peptides in Membrane-Like Environments Leads to Different Fibril Structures and Reduced Molecular Polymorphisms

The molecular-level polymorphism in β-Amyloid (Aβ) fibrils have recently been considered as a pathologically relevant factor in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Studies showed that the structural deviations in human-brain-seeded Aβ fibrils potentially correlated with the clinical histories of AD patients....
