Liquid-liquid Phase Separation of Alpha-synuclein Increases the Structural Variability of Fibrils Formed during Amyloid Aggregation

M. Ziaunys, D. Sulskis, D. Veiveris, A. Kopustas, R. Snieckute, K. Mikalauskaite, A. Sakalauskas, M. Tutkus, V. Smirnovas

This study compares alpha-synuclein aggregation under conditions that promote or negate liquid-liquid phase separation, showing that phase separation leads to more structurally variable and toxic fibrils.

Aggregation-related quenching of LHCII in liposomes revealed by single-molecule spectroscopy

M. Tutkus, J. Chmeliov, G. Trinkunas, P. Akhtar, P. Lambrev, L. Valkunas

The paper uses single-molecule spectroscopy to study fluorescence quenching in liposome-reconstituted LHCII and finds it correlates with protein interactions similar to non-photochemical quenching.
