Fibrils formed by 40- and 42-residue amyloid-beta (A beta 40 and A beta 42) peptides exhibit molecular-level structural polymorphisms. A recent screen of fibrils derived from brain tissue of Alzheimer's disease patients revealed a single predominant A beta 40 polymorph. We present solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) data that define its coexisting structurally ordered and disordered segments.
