Non-steric-zipper models for pathogenic α-synuclein conformers
Parkinson's disease neurodegenerative brain tissue exhibits two biophysically distinct α-synuclein fiber isoforms—single stranded fibers that appear to be steric-zippers and double-stranded fibers with an undetermined structure. Herein, we describe a β-helical homology model of α-synuclein that...
