Exploring the influence of carbon nanoparticles on the formation of β-sheet-rich oligomers of IAPP₂₂₋₂₈ peptide by molecular dynamics simulation.
Recent advances in nanotechnologies have led to wide use of nanomaterials in biomedical field. However, nanoparticles are found to interfere with protein misfolding and aggregation associated with many human diseases. It is still a controversial issue whether nanoparticles inhibit or promote protein...
