High density lipoproteins bind Ab and apolipoprotein C-II amyloid fibrils
Disease-associated amyloid deposits contain both fibrillar and nonfibrillar components. The majority of these amyloid components originate or coexist in the bloodstream. To understand the nature of the interaction between the nonfibrillar and fibrillar components, we have developed a centrifugation method to isolate fibril binding proteins from human serum. Amyloid fibrils composed of either Ab...

متن کاملNanopore analysis of amyloid fibrils formed by lysozyme aggregation.
The measurement of single particle size distributions of amyloid fibrils is crucial for determining mechanisms of growth and toxicity. Nanopore sensing is an attractive solution for this problem since it gives information on aggregates' shapes with relatively high throughput for a single particle technology. In this paper we study the translocation of lysozyme fibrils through quartz glass nanop...
متن کاملDisulfide Bonds Reduce the Toxicity of the Amyloid Fibrils Formed by an Extracellular Protein**
The misfolding of proteins into amyloid fibrils constitutes the hallmark of many diseases. Although relatively few physicochemical properties of protein sequences—charge, hydrophobicity, patterns of polar and nonpolar residues, and tendency to form secondary structures—are sufficient to rationalize in general terms their relative propensities to form amyloid fibrils, 3] other properties can als...
متن کاملThe diversity and utility of amyloid fibrils formed by short amyloidogenic peptides.
Amyloidogenic peptides are well known for their involvement in diseases such as type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. However, more recently, amyloid fibrils have been shown to provide scaffolding and protection as functional materials in a range of organisms from bacteria to humans. These roles highlight the incredible tensile strength of the cross-β amyloid architecture. Many amino acid se...
