Simulation of amyloid aggregation on the surface of a lipid vesicle with a coarse-grained model

The simulations shows the formation of an ordered (fibrillar) aggregate whose nucleation is aided by the presence of a lipid vesicle. The lipid particles are shown in gray while the peptide monomers are shown in color.
