Abstract
Small molecule inhibitors of amyloid aggregation have potential as treatment for a variety of conditions. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Romero and colleagues use amyloid-dependent B. subtilis biofilm formation to screen for amyloid inhibitors, identifying compounds that not only inhibit B. subtilis biofilm formation but also ones that disrupt preformed biofilms.Entities:
