Peptide-surfactant interactions: Consequences for the amyloid-beta structure

The conformation of amyloid-beta peptide (A beta) determines if toxic aggregates are formed. The peptide structure by its turn depends on the environment and molecule-molecule interactions. We characterized the secondary structure of A beta-(1-40) in surfactant solutions and interacting with monolay...
