DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1803539115

Abstract: Significance The aggregation of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide into amyloid fibrils is associated with Alzheimer’s disease, and several point mutations leading to early-onset disease have been identified in Aβ. By studying the aggregation of five… read more here.
