Arrest of beta-amyloid fibril formation by a pentapeptide ligand.

J. Biol. Chem. 271 , 8545-8548, (1996)

Polymerization of amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta) into amyloid fibrils is a critical step in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Here, we show that peptides incorporating a short Abeta fragment (KLVFF; Abeta16-20) can bind full-length Abeta and prevent its ...

Controlling amyloid beta-peptide fibril formation with protease-stable ligands.

J. Biol. Chem. 272 , 12601-12605, (1997)

We have previously shown that short peptides incorporating the sequence KLVFF can bind to the approximately 40amino acid residue Alzheimer amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta) and disrupt amyloid fibril formation (Tjernberg, L. O., Näslund, J., Lindqvist, F., Johanss...
