Molecular Basis of Orb2 Amyloidogenesis and Blockade of Memory Consolidation.
PLoS Biology, 2016 Amyloids are ordered protein aggregates that are typically associated with neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive impairment. By contrast, the amyloid-like state of the neuronal RNA binding protein Orb2 in Drosophila was recently implicated in memory ...

Amyloid Fragmentation and Disaggregation in Yeast and Animals
Biomolecules, 2021 Amyloids are filamentous protein aggregates that are associated with a number of incurable diseases, termed amyloidoses. Amyloids can also manifest as infectious or heritable particles, known as prions. While just one prion is known in humans and animals,

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2012 As amyloid neuropathies have benefited from recent major progress, this review is timely and relevant.The main recent articles on amyloid neuropathy cover its description, methods for diagnosis and therapies. Varied clinical presentations are described in transthyretin (TTR)-familial amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (FAP) and light chain amyloid ...

, 2012 Many bacteria can assemble functional amyloid fibers on their cell surface. The majority of bacterial amyloids contribute to biofilm or other community behaviors where cells interact with a surface or with another cell. Bacterial amyloids, like all functional amyloids, share structural and biochemical properties with disease-associated eukaryotic ...

Nanomaterials: amyloids reflect their brighter side
, 2011 Amyloid fibrils belong to the group of ordered nanostructures that are self-assembled from a wide range of polypeptides/proteins. Amyloids are highly rigid structures possessing a high mechanical strength.

Catalytic Amyloids as Novel Synthetic Hydrolases [PDF]
, 2021 Amyloids are supramolecular assemblies composed of polypeptides stabilized by an intermolecular beta-sheet core. These misfolded conformations have been traditionally associated with pathological conditions such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson´s diseases ...
