Capping Parallel β-Sheets of Acetyl(Ala)(6)NH(2) with an Acetyl(Ala)(5)ProNH(2) Can Arrest the Growth of the Sheet, Suggesting a Potential for Curtailing Amyloid Growth. An ONIOM and Density Functional Theory Study

[Image: see text] We present ONIOM calculations using B3LYP/d95(d,p) as the high level and AM1 as the medium level on parallel β-sheets containing four strands of Ac-AAAAAA-NH(2) capped with either Ac-AAPAAA-NH(2) or Ac-AAAPAA-NH(2). Because Pro can form H-bonds from only one side of the peptide lin...
