A Targetable N-Terminal Motif Orchestrates α-Synuclein Oligomer-to-Fibril Conversion
Oligomeric species populated during α-synuclein aggregation are considered key drivers of neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s disease. However, the development of oligomer-targeting therapeutics is constrained by our limited knowledge of their structure and

Regulation of small heat-shock proteins by hetero-oligomer formation
Small heat-shock proteins (sHsps) compose the most widespread family of molecular chaperones. The human genome encodes 10 different sHsps (HspB1–10). It has been shown that HspB1 (Hsp27), HspB5 (αB-crystallin), and HspB6 (Hsp20) can form hetero-oligomers

A hyperbranched P/N/B-containing oligomer as multifunctional flame retardant for epoxy resins
Flame-retardant epoxy resins (EPs) with superior optical, mechanical and dielectric properties are highly desired in high-tech industries. In this work, a multifunctional hyperbranched additive (BDHDP) was synthesized for EPs.

Molecular weight dependent antistaphylococcal activities of oligomers/polymers synthesized from 3-aminopyridi [PDF]
The main aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between molecular weight and the antistaphylococcal activity of oligomers/polymers synthesized from 3-aminopyridine.

Different Amyloid-β Self-Assemblies Have Distinct Effects on Intracellular Tau Aggregation
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology is characterized by the aggregation of beta-amyloid (Aβ) and tau in the form of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain.

Architecture of the native major royal jelly protein 1 oligomer
Honeybee caste development is nutritionally regulated by royal jelly (RJ). Major royal jelly protein 1 (MRJP1), the most abundant glycoprotein among soluble royal jelly proteins, plays pivotal roles in honeybee nutrition and larvae development, and ...

Characterization of Proanthocyanidin Oligomers of Ephedra sinica
Ephedra sinica, an important plant in Chinese traditional medicine, contains a complex mixture of proanthocyanidin oligomers as major constituents; however, only the minor components have been chemically characterized.
