摘要

Although superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) stands out as a relatively soluble protein in vitro, it can be made to fibrillate by mechanical agitation. The mechanism of this fibrillation process is yet poorly understood, but attains considerable interest due to SODVs involvement in the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In this study, we map out the apoSODI fibrillation process from how it competes with the global folding events at increasing concentrations of urea: We determine how the fibrillation lag time (τ_(lag)) and maximum growth rate (V_(max)) depend on gradual titration of the folding equilibrium, from the native to the unfolded state. The results show that the agitation-induced fibrillation of apoSODI uses globally unfolded precursors and relies on fragmentation-assisted growth. Mutational screening and fibrillation m-values (∂ log T_(lag/∂)[urea] and ∂ log v_(max/∂)[urea]) indicate moreover that the fibrillation pathway proceeds via a diffusely bound transient complex that responds to the global physiochem-ical properties of the SOO1 sequence. Fibrillation of apoSODI, as it bifurcates from the denatured ensemble, seems thus mechanistically analogous to that of disordered peptides, save the competing folding transition to the native state. Finally, we examine by comparison with in vivo data to what extent this mode of fibrillation, originating from selective amplification of mechanically brittle aggregates by sample agitation, captures the mechanism of pathological SOD1 aggregation in ALS.
