Self-assembling amyloid-like peptides and proteins give rise to promising biomaterials with
potential applications in many fields. Amyloid structures are formed by the process of …

Structural biology of proteins emphasises that proteins ought to have an ordered structure to
perform their biological role optimally. The over-reliance on the ordered structure of proteins …

Abstract TDP-43 is an RNA/DNA-binding protein which is also implicated in the
pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) disease. TDP-43's cytoplasmic mis …

Ionic liquids (ILs) are neoteric solvents with a wide range of applications. Interaction of ILs
with proteins alters their stability and self-aggregation. The present work analyses the effect …

Background. Systemic amyloidosis is a potentially fatal condition, unless diagnosed and
treated before development of irreversible organ damage. Demonstration of amyloid …

Protein therapeutics are playing an increasingly important role in treatment of a variety of
human diseases. However, like the rest of proteins, they are susceptible to aggregation …

Formation of amyloid fibrils is found to be a general tendency of many proteins. Investigating
the kinetic mechanisms and structural features of the intermediates and the final fibrillar state …

In this article, we discuss the effects of amino acids on amyloid aggregation of lysozyme. l‐
cysteine (Cys) dramatically inhibited fibrillation of lysozyme, whereas other amino acids …

Amyloids are primarily known for their roles in neurodegenerative disorders, as well as in
systemic diseases like diabetes. Evolutionary forces tend to maintain a healthy set of …

Senile seminal vesicle amyloidosis (SSVA) is associated with deposition of semenogelin-1
(Sg1) protein aggregates in seminal vesicles that may manifest as hematospermia. Sg1 is …
