Kinetics of protein fibril formation: Methods and mechanisms.

Abstract excerpt

Amyloid fibril formation is a self-assembly reaction induced by favourable conformational changes of proteins leading to a stable, structurally organized aggregates. The deposition of stable protein fibrils in organs and tissues results in many diseases which are generally referred as amyloidosis. Though different disease conditions originate from sequentially and structurally different proteins, their fibrillar...
