Structures of amyloid-beta peptides Aβ1-40, , Aβ10-35, Aβ13-23 and Aβ16-22 in a complex with model mem-branes in solution were obtained on the analysis of NMR experimental data. It has been established that the process of peptide-micelle complex formation occurs through the amino acid residues L17, F19, F20 and G29-M35.

Key words:  Alzheimer disease, beta-amyloid, NMR, SDS micelle
