Trifluoroethanol Modulates Amyloid Formation by the All α-Helical URN1 FF Domain

Amyloid fibril formation is implicated in different human diseases. The transition between native α-helices and nonnative intermolecular β-sheets has been suggested to be a trigger of fibrillation in different conformational diseases. The FF domain of the URN1 splicing factor (URN1-FF) is a small al...
