Deskripsi

The BRICHOS domain is a chaperone that can act against amyloid-β peptide fibril formation and non-fibrillar protein aggregation. Here the authors use a multidisciplinary approach and show that the Bri2 BRICHOS domain has qualitatively different chaperone activities depending on its quaternary structure.
