Amyloid-β Peptide (Aβ) Neurotoxicity Is Modulated by the Rate of Peptide Aggregation: Aβ Dimers and Trimers Correlate with Neurotoxicity

Alzheimer's disease is an age-related neurodegenerative disorder with its toxicity linked to the generation of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ). Within the Aβ sequence, there is a systemic repeat of a GxxxG motif, which theoretical studies have suggested may be involved in both peptide aggregation and me...
