📄 "Medin drives Aβ40 to adopt Aβ42‑like fibril polymorphs in vitro"

🧠 Alzheimer’s | 🧩 Amyloids | 🧬 Cryo-EM

I'm thrilled to share our latest Cryo-EM work, which shows how medin, a vascular amyloid, reshapes Aβ40 fibrils to mimic the more toxic Aβ42 polymorphs.

I’m thrilled to finally share this preprint! It contains a WOW Cryo-EM structure (likely one of the strongest protein fibers known to man 🤯), but we’ve also untangled its biological function: a novel type of virulence factor💀!
