Arginine π-stacking drives binding to fibrils of the Alzheimer protein Tau

Aggregation of the Tau protein into fibrils defines progression of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s Disease. The molecular basis for potentially toxic reactions of Tau aggregates is poorly understood. Here we show that π-stacking by Arginine side-chains drives protein binding to Tau...
