Kinetic analysis reveals the diversity of microscopic mechanisms through which molecular chaperones suppress amyloid formation
Molecular chaperones are recognized to interfere with protein aggregation, yet the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, the authors develop a kinetic model that reveals the variety of distinct microscopic mechanisms through which molecular chaperones act to suppress amyloid formation.
