Role of Sequence and Structural Polymorphism on the Mechanical Properties of Amyloid Fibrils

Amyloid fibrils playing a critical role in disease expression, have recently been found to exhibit the excellent mechanical properties such as elastic modulus in the order of 10 GPa, which is comparable to that of other mechanical proteins such as microtubule, actin filament, and spider silk. These...
