摘要
Low pH has a strong stabilising effect on the fibrillar assembly of amyloid beta, which is associated with Alzheimer's disease. The stabilising effect is already pronounced at pH 6.0, suggesting that protonation of histidines might mediate this effect. Through the systematic substitution of the three native histidines in Ab for alanines, we have evaluated their role in fibril stability. Using surface plasmon resonance, we show that at neutral pH the fibrillar forms of all His-Ala variants are destabilised by a factor of 4-12 compared to wildtype A beta. However, none of the His-Ala Ab variants impair the stabilising effect of the fibril at low pH.
