Connecting macroscopic observables and microscopic assembly events in amyloid formation using coarse grained simulations.
The pre-fibrillar stages of amyloid formation have been implicated in cellular toxicity, but have proved to be challenging to study directly in experiments and simulations. Rational strategies to suppress the formation of toxic amyloid oligomers require a better understanding of the mechanisms by wh...
