Aβ Peptide Fibrillar Architectures Controlled by Conformational Constraints of the Monomer

Anomalous self-assembly of the Aβ peptide into fibrillar amyloid deposits is strongly correlated with the development of Alzheimer's disease. Aβ fibril extension follows a template guided “dock and lock” mechanism where polymerisation is catalysed by the fibrillar ends. Using surface plasmon re...
