Part I: The amyloid transformation 1. The hypothesis - the biochemistry of amyloids 2. Three examples of different scenarios of amyloid transformation Part II: Role of local environment in proteins structurization 3. Water environment 4. Membrane environment 5. General universal form to express the external force field Part III: Local environment representation in programs oriented on protein structure prediction 6. Presentation of protocol for In Silico folding simulation Part IV: Specificity of secondary structure in amyloids 7. Analysis of secondary structure specificity as it appears in amyloids Part V: The complete spectrum of environment influence (external force field) on protein folding 8. The examples of protein representing the micelle-like construction 9. The examples of proteins with participation of external force field in moderate degree 10. The trans-membrane proteins as examples of high influence of local environment on protein structurization 11. Enzymes – their protein body - as objects delivering the local external force field for catalytic reaction 12. Folding in assistance of chaperonin, chaperon, prefoldin – analysis as expressed by FOD-M model Part VI: Alternative models for amyloid interpretation 13. Alternative models

Professor Irena Roterman-Konieczna completed her PhD at the Nicolaus Copernicus Medical Academy Krakow, Poland and undertook her postdoctoral studies at Cornell University, USA. She is the director of the Department of Bioinformatics and Telemedicine at Jagiellonian University – Medical College, Poland. Her fields of interest are protein structure, folding simulation as well as systems biology. She is the author of ""Protein Folding in Silico"", published by Woodhead Publishing in 2012., and ""From Globular Proteins to Amyloids"" published by Elsevier in 2020.
