Haas Lab Investigating Cu(I) binding to model peptides

The Haas Lab, with undergraduate researcher Abigail Strausbaugh Hjelmstad, facilitate a comparison of Cu(I) binding to six N-truncated amyloid beta (Aβ) model peptides and contribute to the understanding of the role of Aβ peptides as copper chelators in healthy and diseased brains in their recent publication, "Investigating Cu(I) binding to model peptides of N-terminal Aβ isoforms", available in the Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry.
