abstract = {The deposition of amyloid in brain tissue in the context of
neurodegenerative diseases involves the formation of
intermediate species—termed oligomers—of lower molecular
mass and with structures that deviate from those of mature
amyloid fibrils. Because these oligomers are thought to be
primarily responsible for the subsequent disease
pathogenesis, the elucidation of their structure is of
enormous interest. Nevertheless, because of the high
aggregation propensity and the polydispersity of oligomeric
species formed by the proteins or peptides in question, the
preparation of appropriate samples for high-resolution
structural methods has proven to be rather difficult. This
is why theoretical approaches have been of particular
importance in gaining insights into possible oligomeric
structures for some time. Only recently has it been possible
to achieve some progress with regard to the experimentally
based structural characterization of defined oligomeric
species. Here we discuss how theory and experiment are used
to determine oligomer structures and what can be done to
improve the integration of the two disciplines.},
