Granular assembly of alpha-synuclein leading to the accelerated amyloid fibril formation with shear stress.
alpha-Synuclein participates in the Lewy body formation of Parkinson's disease. Elucidation of the underlying molecular mechanism of the amyloid fibril formation is crucial not only to develop a controlling strategy toward the disease, but also to apply the protein fibrils for future biotechnol...
