Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We showed the possibility that Aβ43, an essential molecule for pathological process of Alzheimer’s disease, could induce channel activity. Also, we successfully prepared Aβ oligomers by PICUP (photo-induced cross-linking of unmodified proteins) method and established the purification procedure with HPLC.
