Cerebral vascular amyloid seeds drive amyloid β-protein fibril assembly with a distinct anti-parallel structure

Cerebrovascular accumulation of Aβ is a common feature of Alzheimer’s disease, though it is unclear whether mutant vascular amyloid is capable of Aβ seeding. Here, the authors show microvascular amyloid seeds are capable of driving wild-type Aβ to assemble into distinctive anti-parallel fibrillary s...
