Amyloid beta peptide 12 (Aβ 29-42)
This part encodes a part of the Amyloid 𝛽 fragment (29-42) which has the ability to bind to A𝛽 plaques inside the brain.
Usage and Biology
Segments of amyloid beta fibrils are widely used as a recognition sequence for amyloid beta plaques inside the brain, this is due to the homotypic interactions in the C-terminus of fibrils. This peptide starts from amino acid 29 to 42 of the fibril.
