## Abstract In this DFT study, a mechanism of the oxidation of methionine (Met) amino acid residue catalyzed by the metal (Cu^2+^, Zn^2+^, and Fe^3+^) bound amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide has been proposed. Based on experimental information, two different mechanisms: (1) stepwise and (2) concerted mecha

## Abstract Amyloid‐β peptide (Aβ) has been implicated in the etiopathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying Aβ neurotoxicity remain to be elucidated. This study showed that Aβ treatment resulted in the increased phosphorylation (activation) of MLK3, MKK7
