Abstract excerpt
The self-assembly of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides into senile plaques in the brain is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. Mutation and histidine tautomerism are considered intrinsic origins in the accumulation of Aβ. As a first step toward understanding the impact of A2V mutation and histidine tautomerism on the Aβ42 isoform, we performed replica-exchange molecular dynamics (REMD) simulations to...
