d-Amino Acid Pseudopeptides as Potential Amyloid-Beta Aggregation Inhibitors

A causative factor for neurotoxicity associated with Alzheimer’s disease is the aggregation of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide into soluble oligomers. Two all d-amino acid pseudo-peptides, SGB1 and SGD1, were designed to stop the aggregation. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been carried out to s...
