Studying pathogenic effects of amyloids requires homogeneous amyloidogenic peptide samples. Recombinant production of these peptides is challenging due to their susceptibility to aggregation and chemical modifications. Thus, chemical synthesis is primarily used to produce amyloidogenic peptides suit...
