Conformational Characterization of Native and L17A/F19A-Substituted Dutch-Type β-Amyloid Peptides
Some mutations which occur in the α/β-discordant region (resides 15 to 23) of β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) lead to familial Alzheimer’s disease (FAD). In vitro studies have shown that these genetic mutations could accelerate Aβ aggregation. We recently showed that mutations in this region could alter the structural propensity, resulting in a different aggregative propensity of Aβ. Whether these genetic mutations display similar effects remains largely unknown. Here, we characterized the structural propensity and aggregation kinetics of Dutch-type Aβ 40 (Aβ 40 (E22Q)) and its L17A/F19A-substituted mu... Mehr ...
