ABSTRACT: A peptide derived from Aβ17−36 crystallizes to form trimers that further associate to form higher-order oligomers. The trimers consist of three highly twisted β-hairpins in a triangular arrangement. Two trimers associate face-to-face in the crystal lattice to form a hexamer; four trimers in a tetrahedral arrangement about a central cavity form a dodecamer. These structures provide a working model for the structures of oligomers associated with neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease. Here we report the X-ray crystallographic structures oftrimers and higher-order oligomeric assemblies of a peptide derived from the β-amyloid peptide (Aβ). Oligomers of Aβ are now thought to play a central role in neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s dis...
