The aggregation tendencies of the signal peptide regions of prone and not prone to aggregate proteins

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports
Signal peptides are a sequence of peptides located at the N-terminus of proteins and determine the protein secretion pathway and their destinations. The N-region is positively charged and influences the orientation of translocation.

Coenzyme Q10 Enhances Resilience of Mitochondrial-like Membranes Against Amyloidogenic Peptides

Membranes
Mitochondria possess a double-membrane envelope which is susceptible to insult by pathogenic intracellular aggregates of amyloid-forming peptides, such as the amyloid-beta (1-42) (Aβ42) peptide and the human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP).
