摘要: Amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide plays an important role in Alzheimer’s disease. A number of mutations the Aβ sequence lead to familial disease, congophilic amyloid angiopathy, or hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloid. Using molecular dynamics simulations ∼200 μs for each system, we characterize and contrast consequences four pathogenic (Italian, Dutch, Arctic, Iowa) structural ensemble monomer. The are found have distinct monomer structure.
