Ideas of order for amyloid fibril structure.

Ronald Wetzel1.   

Abstract

Although we know a significant amount about amyloid structure from low-resolution methods, the nature of the fundamental amyloid fibril folding motif remains unknown. Recent data are keeping one model, based on the parallel beta helix, in the foreground of speculation on the molecular make-up of amyloid.
