Fibrillar dimer formation of islet amyloid polypeptides
Amyloid deposits of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP), a 37-residue hormone co-produced with insulin, have been implicated in the development of type 2 diabetes.

Toxic gain-of-function by islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) is thought to be mediated by membrane poration. Here the authors develop diluted-FRET to show that changes in pore structure correlate with onset of toxicity inside insulin secreting cells.

Nanoscale Control of Amyloid Self-Assembly Using Protein Phase Transfer by Host-Guest Chemistry
Amyloid fibrils have recently been highlighted for their diverse applications as functional nanomaterials in modern chemistry. However, tight control to obtain a targeted fibril length with low heterogeneity has not been achieved because of the ...
