Cryo-EM structures of α-Synuclein(31-100) amyloid fibrils reveal disease-like structural motifs without reproducing the Parkinson’s Disease polymorph
The structural diversity of alpha-synuclein amyloid fibrils is closely linked to the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease and related synucleinopathies. However, reproducing disease-associated fibril conformations from recombinant full-length protein in vitro has remained challenging. Inspired by successful truncation s...
