Molecular Dynamics Simulations Indicate Aromaticity as a Key Factor in the Inhibition of IAPP(20–29) Aggregation

Islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) is a 37-residue amyloidogenic hormone implicated in the progression of Type II Diabetes (T2D). T2D affects an estimated 422 million people yearly and is a comorbidity with numerous diseases. IAPP forms toxic oligomers and amyloid fibrils that reduce pancreatic β-cell...
