Characterisation of the structure and oligomerisation of islet amyloid polypeptides (IAPP): A review of molecular dynamics simulation studies

Human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) is a naturally occurring, intrinsically disordered protein whose abnormal aggregation into amyloid fibrils is a pathological feature in type 2 diabetes, and its cross-aggregation with amyloid beta has been linked to an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Th...
