Figure 1From: Distinct position-specific sequence features of hexa-peptides that form amyloid-fibrils: application to discriminate between amyloid fibril and amorphous β-aggregate forming peptide sequencesMicrocrystal structure of an amyloid-fibril formed by the hexa-peptide, VQIVYK from a human protein, tau. The heavy atoms in all the residues are shown in ball and stick representation. Each ribbon represents a hexa-peptide and the box denotes an unit cell.Back to article page
