Amyloid fibril formation depends on a partial unfolding of the native protein. |
Many such pairs of filaments are bundled together into a structure called a fibril, and groups of fibrils make up a single muscle fiber. |
All fibril dimensions were therefore estimated from the height of the fibril in cross section. |
Besides studying fibrils in the test tube, researchers would like to make computer models to view fibril formation. |
Amyloid fibril formation generally is a result of alteration of the native conformation. |
The simultaneous occurrence of random aggregation and amyloid fibril formation has been observed before. |
