Human and rodent sequence analogs of Alzheimer's amyloid βA4 share similar properties and can be solubilized in buffers of pH 7.4
1 Oct 1991
Abstract excerpt
The filamentous amyloid protein aggregates found in the brain of patients affected with Alzheimer's disease principally consist of a peptide termed beta A4, according to its secondary structure of beta-pleated sheets and its molecular mass of about 4 kDa. It has a length of up to 42 or 43 residues. By chemical means, we have synthesized peptide analogs corresponding to the human and rodent beta A4 sequences. We...
