High-speed atomic force microscopy reveals surface-catalyzed elongation mechanism of fungal functional amyloid, hydrophobin RolA

Nao Takahashi, Tatsuya Kimura, Yuki Terauchi, Takumi Tanaka, Natsuki Abe, Akira Yoshimi, Takahiro Watanabe‐Nakayama, Keietsu Abe

This study uses high-speed atomic force microscopy to reveal the surface-catalyzed elongation mechanism of hydrophobin RolA, showing how rodlet bundling facilitates hierarchical structure formation.
