Identification of transmissible proteotoxic oligomer-like fibrils that expand conformational diversity of amyloid assemblies

Phuong Trang Nguyen et al.

Summary: Nguyen et al identified cytotoxic amyloid fibrils with oligomer-like characteristics, which were assembled from an islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) derivative containing an Asn-to-Gln substitution (N21Q). They presented evidence to show that these stable fibrils expand the conformational diversity of amyloid assemblies, which represents an opportunity to elucidate the structural basis of amyloid disorders.

Prediction of Transmembrane Regions, Cholesterol, and Ganglioside Binding Sites in Amyloid-Forming Proteins Indicate Potential for Amyloid Pore Formation

Katja Venko et al.

Summary: Besides amyloid fibrils, amyloid pores (APs) are another mechanism of amyloid-induced toxicity. Predictive methods were used to assess 30 amyloid-forming proteins (AFPs) for their propensity to form transmembrane channels, providing insights for future experiments towards a deeper understanding of amyloid toxicity. The presence of transmembrane (TM) regions, cholesterol (CBM), and ganglioside binding motifs (GBM) in pathological AFPs suggest their potential for pore formation.

Summary: The barrier function of biological membranes can be disrupted by membrane-active peptides, but the mechanism behind their activity is not fully understood for the development of more effective peptides. Alpha-helical amphiphilic peptides have specific design rules for their activity on membranes, and the presence of a kink can affect peptide affinity and stability. Flexibility plays a crucial role in pore formation by membrane-active peptides.
