When aggregation-induced emission meets protein aggregates [PDF]
National Science Review, 2021 There is an unmet demand for research tools to monitor the multistep protein aggregation process in live cells, a process that has been associated with a growing number of human diseases. Recently, AIEgens have been developed to directly monitor the entire protein aggregation process in test tubes and live cells.

Protein aggregation and neurodegeneration [PDF]
Methods, 2011 In 1997 Carrell and Lomas put forth the concept that many disorders, which appeared to be unlinked, arose from the same general mechanism that involved the abnormal unfolding and aggregation of various underlying proteins [1]. The flux of proteins through pathways for formation of amyloid-like aggregates was proposed to be the mechanism for ...

Localization of protein aggregation in Escherichia coli is governed by diffusion and nucleoid macromolecular crowding effect [PDF]
, 2013 Aggregates of misfolded proteins are a hallmark of many age-related diseases. Recently, they have been linked to aging of Escherichia coli (E. coli) where protein aggregates accumulate at the old pole region of the aging bacterium.

Protein aggregation in silico [PDF]
Trends in Biotechnology, 2007 Protein aggregation is a challenge to the successful manufacture of protein therapeutics; it can impose severe limitations on purification yields and compromise formulation stability. Advances in computer power, and the wealth of computational studies pertaining to protein folding, have facilitated the development of molecular simulation as a tool to ...
