Design of amyloidogenic peptide traps
Abstract Segments of proteins with high β-strand propensity can self-associate to form amyloid fibrils implicated in many diseases. We describe…

Disrupting the α-synuclein-ESCRT interaction with a peptide inhibitor mitigates neurodegeneration in preclinical models of Parkinson’s disease
Abstract Accumulation of α-synuclein into toxic oligomers or fibrils is implicated in dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s disease. Here we performed…
