Abstract excerpt
Formation of toxic oligomeric and fibrillar structures by the amyloid beta-protein (Abeta) is linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD). To facilitate the targeting and design of assembly inhibitors, intrinsic fluorescence was used to probe assembly-dependent changes in Abeta conformation. To do so, Tyr...
