摘要

The apolipoprotein family is structurally defined by amphipathic a-helical regions that interact with lipid surfaces. In the absence of lipid, human apolipoprotein (apo) C-II also forms well-defined amyloid fibrils with cross-beta structure. Formation of this beta-structure is accompanied by the burial of two charged residues, K30 and D69, that form an ion pair within the amyloid fibril core. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations indicate these buried residues form both intra- and intersubunit ion-pair interactions that stabilize the fibril. Mutations of the ion-pair (either K30D or D69K) reduce fibril stability and prevent fibril formation by K30D appC-II under standard conditions. We investigated whether mixing K30D apoC-II with other mutants would overcome this loss of fibril forming ability. Co-incubation of equimolar mixtures of K30D apoC-II with wild-type, D69K, or double-mutant (K30D/D69K) apoC-II promoted the incorporation of K30D apoC-II into hybrid fibrils with increased stability. MD simulations showed an increase in the number of intersubunit ion-pair interactions accompanied the increased stability of the hybrid fibrils. These results demonstrate the important role of both intra- and intersubunit charge interactions in stabilizing apoC-II amyloid fibrils, a process that may be a key factor in determining the general ability of proteins to form amyloid fibrils.
