Abstract excerpt
The wild type (WT) amyloid-beta (10-35) peptide, Abeta (10-35), and its F19T mutant have been studied by molecular dynamics simulations at 340 K in explicit water solvent each for over 3.4 ms. The WT peptide has a strong preference to form an E22-K28 loop (44% of total conformations) and a reasonable stability for a strand-loop-strand (SLS, L17-M35) (9%). The F19T mutant has a significantly lower population of...
