AMYLOID 3 (IMAGE)
Caption
A sequence from computational models produced at Rice University shows how an amyloid beta peptide (magenta) docks and locks to an amyloid fibril. Simulations revealed the intermediate conformations in steps 2 through 5, indications of frustration in binding that may present new opportunities for treatment.
