Cu(2+) Affects Amyloid-β (1–42) Aggregation by Increasing Peptide-Peptide Binding Forces

The link between metals, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and its implicated protein, amyloid-β (Aβ), is complex and highly studied. AD is believed to occur as a result of the misfolding and aggregation of Aβ. The dyshomeostasis of metal ions and their propensity to interact with Aβ has also been impli...
