Massively parallel genetic perturbation reveals the energetic architecture of an amyloid beta nucleation reaction
2024-07-24
Abstract excerpt
Amyloid protein aggregates are pathological hallmarks of more than fifty human diseases but how soluble proteins nucleate to form amyloids is poorly understood. Here we use combinatorial mutagenesis, a kinetic selection assay, and machine learning to massively perturb the energetics of the nucleation reaction of amyloid beta (Aβ42), the protein that aggregates in Alzheimer’s disease. In total, we quantify the nucl...
