De novo designed protein inhibitors of amyloid aggregation and seeding
15 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by the pathologic accumulation of aggregated proteins. Known as amyloid, these fibrillar aggregates include proteins such as tau and amyloid-β (Aβ) in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and alpha-synuclein (αSyn) in Parkinson’s disease (PD).
