Abstract excerpt
The structural and dynamic characterization of the on-pathway intermediates involved in the mechanism of amyloid fibril formation is one of the major remaining biomedical challenges of our time. In addition to mature fibrils, various oligomeric structures are implicated in both the rate-limiting step of the nucleation process and the neuronal toxicity of amyloid deposition. Single-molecule fluorescence...
