Amyloids in synthetic applications

[摘要] More than a century after the first description of amyloids by Alois Alzheimer, and despite the enormous research efforts since then, the field is still full of surprises. While searching for answers to questions for example on the driving force, mechanism, and regulation of amyloidogenesis, or on the structure, physiological and pathological roles of different amyloid aggregates, unexpected properties are regularly revealed, broadening their application possibilities. This Collection aims to focus on the beneficial sides of amyloid formation, primarily exploring the potential use of amyloids in material science, bioengineering, and synthetic chemistry.
