Nucleation-dependent aggregation kinetics of Yeast <i>Sup</i> 35 fragment GNNQQNY

2020-07-28

Abstract excerpt

An N-terminal hepta-peptide sequence of yeast prion protein Sup35 with the sequence GNNQQNY serves as an ideal model for structural understanding of amyloid assembly and kinetics. In this study, we used a reproducible solubilisation protocol that allows the generation of homogenous monomeric solution of GNNQQNY to understand the molecular details of its self-assembly mechanism. The aggregation kinetics data show t...
