Abstract

In amyloid diseases, monomeric proteins self-assemble into supramolecular aggregates. In their Communication on page 8821 ff. V. Subramaniam et al. describe a new method that combines single-molecule photobleaching approaches with sub-stoichiometric labeling with fluorophores to determine the molecular composition of these large protein aggregates. The cover picture shows the aggregation of combinations of labeled and unlabeled monomers and the subsequent photobleaching analysis of single aggregates.
