Figure 1

Alpha-synuclein residues 57–60 (EKTK) and 59–62 (TKEQ), held in a constrained turn, represent conformational epitopes predicted to be exposed on oligomers and small soluble fibrils but not monomers or fully formed insoluble fibrils. Representative molecular dynamics simulated conformations of the cyclic epitopes with the side chains oriented into solvent are shown.
