Effects of a plant cyclotide on conformational dynamics and destabilization of β-amyloid fibrils through molecular dynamics simulations

Aggregation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide is one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) which results in chronic and progressive neurodegeneration of the brain. A recent study by our group have shown the ability of cyclic disulfide-rich peptides (“cyclotides”) isolated from a medicinal plant, Clit...
