摘要：

We assessed the fibrillogenic properties of synthetic peptides corresponding to residues 13-26 of beta/A4 amyloid, containing either the normal sequence (beta13 26) or the mutations Glu 22 to Gln (beta13 26Q22) and Ala21 to Gly (beta13 26G21). The kinetics of aggregation were monitored at 37-degrees-C and pH 7.4 by measuring the amount of peptide remaining in solution, using reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Negative stain electron microscopy revealed that all of the peptides formed fibrils. However, beta13 26Q22 showed greatly accelerated fibril formation compared to the other two. The results suggest that the Q22 mutation confers increased amyloidogenic properties on the beta/A4 peptide, whereas the G21 mutation acts by a different pathogenic mechanism.
