Molecular dynamics simulations reveal the importance of amyloid-beta oligomer β-sheet edge conformations in membrane permeabilization

Oligomeric aggregates of the amyloid-beta peptide(1-42) (Aβ42) are regarded as a primary cause of cytotoxicity related to membrane damage in Alzheimer’s disease. However, a dynamical and structural characterization of pore-forming Aβ42 oligomers at atomic detail has not been feasible. Here, we used...
