L17A/F19A Substitutions Augment the α-Helicity of β-Amyloid Peptide Discordant Segment.
β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) aggregation has been thought to be associated with the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Recently, we showed that L17A/F19A substitutions may increase the structural stability of wild-type and Arctic-type Aβ40 and decrease the rates of structural conversion and fibril...
