Nanopore 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 کاملCytochrome display on amyloid fibrils.
Protein amyloid fibrils can be functionalized by coating the core protofilament with high concentrations of proteins and enzymes. This can be done elegantly by appending a functional domain to an amyloidogenic protein monomer, then assembling the monomers into a fibril. To display an array of biologically functional porphyrins on the surface of protein fibrils, we have fused the sequence of the...
متن کاملInhibition of Amyloid Fibrils Formation from Hen Egg White Lysozyme by Satureia Hortensis Extract and its Effect on Learning and Spatial Memory of Rats
Background & Aims: Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the abnormal aggregation of amyloid-β plaques in the brain. Although several studies have been done for finding effective medicines in the treatment of this disease, a drug that inhibits amyloid β aggregation and ameliorates the disorder has not been approved so far. One important therapeutic approach is use...
متن کاملNucleation of amyloid fibrils.
We consider nucleation of amyloid fibrils in the case when the process occurs by the mechanism of direct polymerization of practically fully extended protein segments, i.e., beta-strands, into beta-sheets. Applying the classical nucleation theory, we derive a general expression for the work to form a nanosized amyloid fibril (protofilament) constituted of successively layered beta-sheets. Analy...
متن کاملIdentification of the core structure of lysozyme amyloid fibrils by proteolysis.
Human lysozyme variants form amyloid fibrils in individuals suffering from a familial non-neuropathic systemic amyloidosis. In vitro, wild-type human and hen lysozyme, and the amyloidogenic mutants can be induced to form amyloid fibrils when incubated under appropriate conditions. In this study, fibrils of wild-type human lysozyme formed at low pH have been analyzed by a combination of limited ...
