Stability of Transmembrane Amyloid β-Peptide and Membrane Integrity Tested by Molecular Modeling of Site-Specific Aβ (42) Mutations

Interactions of the amyloid β-protein (Aβ) with neuronal cell membranes, leading to the disruption of membrane integrity, are considered to play a key role in the development of Alzheimer’s disease. Natural mutations in Aβ (42), such as the Arctic mutation (E22G) have been shown to increase Aβ (42)...
