They also say that their graphene grid method could be used to determine the structures of other small and unstable proteins—including the amyloid-beta peptide that builds up in the brain in ...

Researchers from Osaka University found that peristaltic pump flow mechanically breaks supersaturation to induce amyloid ...

The average estimated effect of the virus on beta amyloid proteins was comparable to the effect from four years of aging, researchers found. The difference was most pronounced in patients who'd been ...

The factor that tips you over the edge from being at risk for a disease to actually developing the disease is not always ...

He had been working in the realm of wet lab experimental biochemistry when he decided to ... In its monomeric form, amyloid-β begins as an intrinsically disordered protein; however, it can assemble ...

Misfolded proteins (also called toxic conformations) are typically insoluble, and they tend to form long linear or fibrillar aggregates known as amyloid deposits. But how can a protein change so ...
