Abstract excerpt
Protein misfolding and aggregation are hallmarks of many severe neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Huntington's disease. As a supramolecular ligand that binds to lysine and arginine residues, the molecular tweezer CLR01 was found to modify the aggregation pathway of disease-relevant proteins in vitro and in vivo with beneficial effects on toxicity. However, the molecular mechanisms...
