Bioinformatics methods for identification of amyloidogenic peptides show robustness to misannotated training data
Abstract Several disorders are related to amyloid aggregation of proteins, for example Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s diseases. Amyloid proteins form fibrils of aggregated beta structures. This is preceded by formation of oligomers—the most cytotoxic species. Determining amyloidogenicity is tedious and...
