Nucleation, cross-reactivity and structure of bacterial functional amyloids Vrije Universiteit Brussel
fibrils is not restricted to off-pathway protein misfolding events seen
in pathological amyloidosis but is also found as the native
conformation of a wide range of pro- and eukaryotic proteins referred
to as functional amyloids (FA). A significant fraction of the FAs
produced by prokaryotes are related to the persistence and virulence
