متن کاملChemical kinetics for drug discovery to combat protein aggregation diseases.
Protein misfolding diseases are becoming increasingly prevalent, yet there are very few effective pharmacological treatments. The onset and progression of these diseases is associated with the aberrant aggregation of normally soluble proteins and peptides into amyloid fibrils. Because genetic and physiological findings suggest that protein aggregation is a key event in pathogenesis, an attracti...
متن کاملInsight into the correlation between lag time and aggregation rate in the kinetics of protein aggregation.
Under favorable conditions, many proteins can assemble into macroscopically large aggregates such as the amyloid fibrils that are associated with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other neurological and systemic diseases. The overall process of protein aggregation is characterized by initial lag time during which no detectable aggregation occurs in the solution and by maximal aggregation rate at wh...
متن کاملSpectral Rate Theory for Two-State Kinetics.
Classical rate theories often fail in cases where the observable(s) or order parameter(s) used is a poor reaction coordinate or the observed signal is deteriorated by noise, such that no clear separation between reactants and products is possible. Here, we present a general spectral two-state rate theory for ergodic dynamical systems in thermal equilibrium that explicitly takes into account how...
متن کاملApplication of Graph Theory to Chemical Kinetics, 3. Topological Specificity of Multiroute Reaction Mechanisms
A structural analysis and classification of the reaction networks of the multiroute reactions is made using the bipartite graph method. Simple submechanisms of the overall reaction mechanism are defined, so as to correspond to routes with minimal stoichiometric numbers. The possibility for balancing the intermediate species is advocated as the major classificational criterion which discriminate...
