Abstract:Recent structural studies show distinct morphologies for the fibrilsof Ab(1-42) and Ab(1-40), which are believed not to co-fibrillize.We describe here a novel, structurally-uniform 1 : 1 mixed fibrillarspecies, which differs from bothpure fibrils. It forms preferen-tially even when Ab(1-42) : Ab(1-40) peptides are mixed in a non-stoichiometric ratio.
