PNNL will create and operate the Pacific Northwest Center for Cryo-EM (PNCC), a state-of-the-art national center for cryo-electron microscopy (Cryo-EM) that will rapidly and efficiently collect and…

Structure determination of full-length amyloid fibrils of protein tau seeded by fibrils extracted from brains of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) patients

Lead Institution

University of California, Los Angeles

Principal Investigator

David Eisenberg

The accumulation of amyloid fibrils in the brain is associated with physiological events that trigger cascades of numerous neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we aim to use cryo-EM to determine the…
