Amyloid Fibers of α-Synuclein Catalyze Chemical Reactions

[Image: see text] Amyloid fibers of the protein α-synuclein, found in Lewy body deposits, are hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease. We here show that α-synuclein amyloids catalyze biologically relevant chemical reactions in vitro. Amyloid fibers, but not monomers, of α-synuclein catalyzed hydrolysis of...
