Significance The assembly of normally soluble proteins into large fibrils, known as amyloid aggregation, is associated with a range of pathologies. Prefibrillar protein oligomers but not the grown fibers are believed to be the main toxic agents. It is unresolved if these oligomers are necessary for fibril assembly or just a dangerous byproduct. We...
