α-Synuclein Amyloid Fibrils with Two Entwined, Asymmetrically Associated Protofibrils

Parkinson disease and other progressive neurodegenerative conditions are characterized by the intracerebral presence of Lewy bodies, containing amyloid fibrils of α-synuclein. We used cryo-electron microscopy and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) to study in vitro-assembled fibrils. T...
