On the function and fate of chloride ions in amyloidogenic self-assembly of insulin in an acidic environment : salt-induced condensation of fibrils

Formation of amyloid fibrils is often facilitated in the presence of specific charge-compensating ions. Dissolved sodium chloride is known to accelerate insulin fibrillation at low pH that has been attributed to the shielding of electrostatic repulsion between positively charged insulin molecules by...
