Oxidase Reactivity of Cu<sup>II</sup> Bound to <i>N</i>-Truncated Aβ Peptides Promoted by Dopamine
The redox chemistry of copper(II) is strongly modulated by the coordination to amyloid-β peptides and by the stability of the resulting complexes. Amino-terminal copper and nickel binding motifs (ATCUN) identified in truncated Aβ sequences starting with Phe4 show very high affinity for copper(II) io...
