Abstract

Focuses on a study which created a combinatorial library of protein sequences de novo to probe the relationship between amino acid sequence and the propensity to form amyloid. Methodology; Design of sequences; Biochemical and structural characterization of de novo amyloid proteins; Amyloidogenic propensity of alternating polar/nonpolar patterns.
