As the intrinsic origin of the hypothesis for β-amyloid (Aβ) from Alzheimer's disease, histidine
behaviors were found to play a crucial role in Aβ aggregation. To investigate the histidine
behaviors during the early stage of aggregation, Aβ40/42 pentamers with different histidine
isomer states were simulated at the atomic level. Results show that five Aβ40 (δδδ) and
Aβ42 (εδδ) monomers can rapidly decrease the aggregation threshold, promote stable
pentamer formation, and increase pentamer contents by 51.8% and 56.7%, respectively, as …
As the intrinsic origin of the hypothesis for β-amyloid (Aβ) from Alzheimer’s disease, histidine behaviors were found to play a crucial role in Aβ aggregation. To investigate the histidine behaviors during the early stage of aggregation, Aβ40/42 pentamers with different histidine isomer states were simulated at the atomic level. Results show that five Aβ40 (δδδ) and Aβ42 (εδδ) monomers can rapidly decrease the aggregation threshold, promote stable pentamer formation, and increase pentamer contents by 51.8% and 56.7%, respectively, as compared with the values of their wild-type (εεε) counterparts. Additionally, pentamers of Aβ40 (δδδ) and Aβ42 (εδδ) have different aggregation pathways and disassembly species, Tr+D and Te+M, during the growth of the pentamer. This work discloses the significance of histidine tautomerization in Aβ aggregation, implying a potential way to control Aβ aggregation and develop the assembly inhibitors.
