PDZ domains are members of the protein interaction domain family, [1] semi-autonomous modules embedded within larger signaling proteins that impart a degree of exclusivity to the binding properties of their hosts. As mediators of mammalian protein-protein interactions that number in the hundreds, PD
-Amyloid protein (A) is a major component of neuritic plaques and cerebrovascular amyloid deposits in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Inhibitors of A fibrillogenesis are currently sought as potential future therapeutics for AD and related disorders. In the present study, the
