Objective Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is often linked to mutations in the SOD1 protein, such as the A4V variant, which leads to toxic protein aggregation. Our goal was to design a synthetic peptide binder to act as a “molecular shield,” stabilizing the protein and preventing aggregation.</description><generator>Hugo</generator><language>en</language><atom:link href="https://pages.htgaa.org/2026a/rus-darius/homework/week-05-hw-protein-design-part-ii/index.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/></channel></rss>
