Understanding how proteins assemble into aggregate structures, such as the unstructured TIA or the large rope-like fibril aggregates (5) described in this thesis, can lead to controlled assembly for biomaterials applications and/or prevention of unwanted aggregation. cache/pz50gt5705c.txt txt/pz50gt5705c.txt
