Lipids in Protein Misfolding
This book addresses molecular mechanisms of protein misfolding and the role of lipids and related molecules in these complex processes. The focus is on the biophysical and structural studies of proteins that are involved in major human disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, systemic amyloidoses, dia...
