Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Amyloidogenic proteins are most often associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington's disease, but there are more than two dozen human proteins known to form amyloid fibrils associated with disease. Lysozyme is an antimicrobial protein that is used as a general model to study amyloid fibril formation. Studies aimed at elucidating the...
