Liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins underlies the formation of membrane-less
organelles. While it has been recognized for some time that these organelles are of key …

Self-assembled peptide nanostructures have been increasingly exploited as functional
materials for applications in biomedicine and energy. The emergent properties of these …

Phase transition issues in the field of foods and drugs have significantly influenced these
industries and consequently attracted the attention of scientists and engineers. The study of …

Differential scanning calorimetry measures the heat capacity of states and the excess heat
associated with transitions that can be induced by temperature change. The integral of the …

Amyloid fibrils are supramolecular homopolymers of proteins that play important roles in
biological functions and disease. These objects have received an exponential increase in …

Amyloids result from the aggregation of a set of diverse proteins, due to either specific
mutations or promoting intra-or extra-cellular conditions. Structurally, they are rich in …

Buckwheat‐resistant starch (BRS) has shown to be a nutrient capable of lowering
cholesterol and reducing obesity. In this study, the regulatory effects of tartary buckwheat …

Protein fibrils are relevant not only in medicine and amyloid-related neurodegenerative
diseases, but also as functional structures in material science or biology. The assembly of …

The self-assembly behaviour of the eight stereoisomers of Val–Phe–Phe tripeptides under
physiological conditions is assessed by several spectroscopy and microscopy techniques …

To understand and tackle amyloid-related diseases, it is crucial to investigate the factors that
modulate amyloid formation of proteins. Our previous studies proved that the N47A mutant of …
