Chemical Colloids versus Biological Colloids:  A Comparative Study for the Elucidation of the Mechanism of Protein Fiber Formation

Fiber formation from murine serum amyloid A1 (SAA) was compared to the linear aggregation and fiber formation of colloidal gold particles. Here we report the similarities of these processes. Upon incubation with acetic acid, SAA misfolds and adopts a new conformation, which we termed saa. saa appare...
