Evolution over time of the processes involved in IAPP supra-molecular assembly.
In order to facilitate kinetic comparison, data has been summarised from the complete data set shown in other Figures. To be able to compare the kinetics between gelation and fibrillisation, the ThT fibrillisation assays (mean of 3 independent experiments) shown was performed at 25 °C, the same temperature as for the rheology experiments. Values have been normalised to the maximum value in each experiment and are expressed as a percentage of this value. For clarity only G’ is shown for gelation. The inset shows a zoom-in of the time axis. rheo stands for rheology, ST for surface tension.
