“…Solid state NMR, meaning a class of NMR methods developed specifically for structural studies of biochemical (and other) systems in noncrystalline solid and solid-like states, has emerged as a principal methodology for structural studies of amyloid fibrils in the past decade [1][2][3]. Solid state NMR measurements have provided answers to central questions concerning the supramolecular organization of amyloid fibrils [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16], peptide conformations within amyloid fibrils [6,8,10,11,[17][18][19][20][21][22][23], and the diversity of amyloid structures [10][11][12][13][14][15]24]. Solid state NMR data have been used as the primary basis for experimentally-constrained structural models of amyloid fibrils, including fibrils formed by the 40-residue β-amyloid (Aβ ) peptide associated with Alzheimer's disease [11,22] and by shorter peptides derived from Aβ or other amyloid-forming proteins [4,5,7,8,10,14,16,…”
