Folding simulation of amyloid β-peptide in alzheimer's disease.
An amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) containing 42 residues is a major component of neurotic plaques in Alzheimer’s disease. The conformation of residues 1-28 of the peptide sequence determine whether the amyloid β-peptide will form neurotic aggregates, since the rest of the residues remain in β-sheet conforma...
