Inhibition of ribosomal translocation by peptidyl transfer ribonucleic acid analogues.

abstract：:Apolipoprotein E is immunochemically localized to amyloid plaque in Alzheimer's brains, and the allelic distribution of ApoE in individuals is associated with a disposition toward Alzheimer's disease. We show here that all three ApoE isotypes exhibit a strong and specific ability to inhibit both nucleation and seeding...
