The generation of toxic oligomers during the aggregation of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide Aβ42 into amyloid fibrils and plaques has emerged as a central feature of the onset and progression of Alzheimer’s disease, but the molecular pathways that control pathological aggregation have proved challenging to identify. Here, we use a combination of kinetic...
