Structure-based machine-guided mapping of amyloid sequence space reveals uncharted sequence clusters with higher solubilities

An increasing number of amyloid structures are determined. Here, the authors present the structure-based amyloid core sequence prediction method Cordax that is based on machine learning and allows the detection of aggregation-prone regions with higher solubility, disorder and surface exposure, and f...
