Abstract

Herein we report the design, synthesis, and testing of prototype members of a family of amyloid-binding molecular tools that can manipulate the fibrils by giving them various new functional properties. Potential applications include manipulating disease-relevant fibrils, developing novel functional nanomaterials, and studying the molecular details of fibril structures.
