| The simultaneous occurrence of random aggregation and amyloid fibril formation has been observed before. |
| Amyloid fibril formation generally is a result of alteration of the native conformation. |
| All fibril dimensions were therefore estimated from the height of the fibril in cross section. |
| In particular, the mineral completely encases each fibril, enclosing the fibrillar volume. |
| Besides studying fibrils in the test tube, researchers would like to make computer models to view fibril formation. |
| Amyloid fibril formation depends on a partial unfolding of the native protein. |
