The Beta Crystal

[skyship]

The Beta Crystal could be the new amyloid like filament formation progenitor, or beginning seed.
Amyloids are known to seed themselves. This is amyloid like, which means not the known prion forming amyloid, but
another one like it which means it was mimicked or mirrored from amyloid and used as functional synthetic amyloid as signal generating operators.

As I have stated before in other posts which get buried by the spammers, that amyloid like or amyloid itself can be functional or dysfunctional. So, it is like a technological selection process which others integrate, but, as Sophie Smallstorm has said in videos, she has done extensive research on, that Morgellons is a form of rejection of these filaments while others integrate them and they do not have Morgellons symptoms, and I add, .....not yet~!




........The 2.4 A crystal structure of human SOD, along with two other SOD structures, established that all 12 observed FALS mutant sites alter conserved interactions critical to the beta-barrel fold and dimer contact, rather than catalysis. Red cells from heterozygotes had less than 50 percent normal SOD activity, consistent with a structurally defective SOD dimer."........

Does civil engineering involve the " civil citizen cell structures"?

....Civil engineering is a broad subfield of engineering that focuses on strategies to develop and maintain the infrastructures to enable and evolve modern civilization. Environmental engineering is concerned with the complex interaction of synthetic structures with natural environments, and with development of environmentally friendly engineering concepts. ........

Amyloid fibrils and other beta-sheet rich materials

Amyloids are highly organized protein filaments, rich in beta-sheet secondary structures, that self-assemble to form dense plaques in brain tissues affected by severe neurodegenerative disorders (e.g. Alzheimer’s Disease). Identified as natural functional materials in bacteria, in addition to their remarkable mechanical properties, amyloids have also been proposed as a platform for novel biomaterials in nanotechnology applications including nanowires, liquid crystals, scaffolds and thin films. Our work focuses on developing structural models of amyloid fibrils and the analysis of physical material properties of fibrils, fibers, and amyloid plaques. We use a series of computational tools to achieve this. In addition to work focused on amyloids, we also emphasize on studies of beta-solenoids, protein nanotubes, and other fibrous beta-sheet materials.

The image above depicts the hierarchical structure of amyloid protein material, from atoms to plaques or biofilms. Our work focuses on explaining mechanical properties at distinct hierarchical levels by using a multiscale modeling approach that links nano to macro.
