Abstract excerpt
Fibrils from the Parkinson's-disease-related A53T mutant of alpha-synuclein were investigated by solid-state NMR spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Sequential solid-state NMR resonance assignments were obtained for a large fraction of the fibril core. Experiments conducted above and below the freezing point suggest that the fibrils contain regions with increased mobility and...
