Figure 1 Proteostatic Hotspot Control of Native and Pathogenic Amyloid Illustrated is the impact of designer amyloid chaperones (green, blue pentamers) on proteostatic hotspots (red stars) found in polymer fibrils assembled from monomers (black spheres) catalytically nucleating toxic oligomer formation. Therapeutic management of proteostatic hotspots triggering dementia may be treatable by hotspot-targeted therapeutics (orange chevrons).
