## Abstract 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 initia

In the previous study (part I), heat-denatured RNase A aggregation was shown to depend on the solution pH. Interestingly, at pH 3.0, the protein did not aggregate even when exposed to 75Β°C for 24 h. In this study, electrostatic repulsion was shown to be responsible for the absence of aggregates at t
The reversibility of the thermal denaturation of a low-sulfur fraction of solubilized wool keratin (SCMKA) has been studied under a variety of conditions of time, protein concentration, and pH. Two types of irreversibility for the transition have been encountered. One of these is associated with an
