Stimulation and inhibition of fibril formation by a peptide in the presence of different concentrations of SDS.
Sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), a detergent that mimics some characteristics of biological membranes, has been found to affect significantly fibril formation by a peptide from human complement receptor 1. In aqueous solution the peptide is unfolded but slowly aggregates to form fibrils. In sub-micell...
