Relationship between Prion Propensity and the Rates of Individual Molecular Steps of Fibril Assembly

Peptides and proteins possess an inherent propensity to self-assemble into generic fibrillar nanostructures known as amyloid fibrils, some of which are involved in medical conditions such as Alzheimer disease. In certain cases, such structures can self-propagate in living systems as prions and trans...
