We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

| - | Amyloid fibrils were suspected for long to be the agents of Amyloid diseases,including Alzheimer’s,Parkinson’s and the prion conditions.But evidence suggests that smaller, often transient and polymorphic oligomers are the toxic entities.Segment of amyloid forming protein alpha-beta crystallin makes oligomeric complex which exhibits properties of other amyloid oligomers.The structure of oligomer shows a cylindrical barrel,made up of six anti-parallel protein strands known as cylindrin.This segment termed as K11V forms the cylindrin structure. | + | Amyloid fibrils were suspected for long to be the agents of Amyloid diseases,including Alzheimer’s,Parkinson’s and the prion conditions.But evidence suggests that smaller, often transient and polymorphic oligomers are the toxic entities.Segment of amyloid forming protein alpha-beta crystallin makes oligomeric complex which exhibits properties of other amyloid oligomers.The structure of oligomer shows a cylindrical barrel,made up of <scene name='77/771966/Six_anti-parallel_protein_abc/1'>six anti-parallel protein strands</scene> known as cylindrin.This segment(coloured in black) termed as <scene name='77/771966/Cylindrin_of_one_subunit/1'>K11V</scene> forms the cylindrin structure. |
