Structures of Aβ17–42 trimers in isolation and with five small-molecule drugs using a hierarchical computational procedure

The amyloid-β protein (Aβ) oligomers are believed to be the main culprits in the cytoxicity of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and p3 peptides (Aβ17–42 fragments) are present in AD amyloid plaques. Many small-molecule or peptide-based inhibitors are known to slow down Aβ aggregation and reduce the toxicity...
