Interactions among β-sheets occur widely in protein quaternary structure, protein-protein interaction, and protein aggregation and are central in Alzheimer's and other amyloid-related diseases. This Perspective looks at the structural biology of these important yet under-appreciated interactions from a supramolecular chemist's point of view. Common themes in the supramolecular interactions of β-sheets are identified and richly illustrated though examples from proteins, amyloids, and chemical mod ...[more]
