Figure 2.
FIGURE 2. In vitro fibril formation indicated shorter lag time for AL-09. a, ThT fluorescence measured at 1, 24, and 120 h indicated that AL-09 ( ) formed fibrils within 24 h, whereas I O18/O8 ( ) did not (error bars were ± S.D. for n = 5; ^*, p value 0.05). Even after 120 h, I O18/O8 had not formed fibrils (^**, p value 0.0079). Complete amyloid formation kinetics followed by ThT fluorescence is included in supplemental Fig. S2 online. b, electron micrograph of AL-09 at 24 h (scale bar, 500 nm), confirming fibril formation. c, I O18/O8 fibril formation at 215 h (scale bar 100 nm) confirms the earliest time point at which ThT fluorescence enhancement occurred (supplemental Fig. S2 online).
