Amyloid-? (1-42) (A?42) is a neurotoxic 42-amino acid protein fragment found in amyloid plaques in postmortem cerebral cortex from patients with Alzheimer’s disease.{10614,42695,54362} Aggregation of A?42 results in the formation of neurotoxic fibrils or globular oligomers.{10614} A?42 is less abundant but has a faster rate of fibril formation and enhanced neurotoxicity compared with A?40 (Item No. 21617).{33895,33896} Citrullinated A?42 is a modified form of A?42 (Item No. 20574) that is citrullinated at arginine 5. It exhibits increased transient formation of soluble oligomers and decreased rate of fibril formation compared with unmodified A?42 and, like unmodified A?42, forms fibrils composed of parallel ?-sheets.
