Abstract:Aβ amyloid proteins are involved in neuro-degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and so forth. Because of its structurally stable feature under physiological conditions, Aβ amyloid protein disrupts the normal cell function. Because of these concerns, understanding the structural feature of Aβ amyloid protein in detail is crucial. There have been some efforts on lowering the structural stabilities of Aβ amyloid fibrils by decreasing the aromatic residues characteristic and hydrophobic effect. Y… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
