The aggregation of amyloid ? peptides (A?) into amyloid fibrils is implicated in the pathology of Alzheimer?s disease. In light of the increasing number of proteins reported to retard A? fibril formation, we investigated the influence of small hydrophilic model proteins of different charge on A? aggregation kinetics and their interaction with A?. We followed the amyloid fibril formation of A?40 and A?42 using thioflavin T fluorescence in the presence of six charge variants of calbindin D9k and single-chain monellin. The formation of fibrils was verified with transmission electron microscopy. We observe retardation of the aggregation process from proteins with net charge +8, +2, ?2, and ?4, whereas no effect is observed for proteins with net charge of ?6 and ?8. The single-chain monellin mutant with the highest net charge, scMN+8, has the largest retarding effect on the amyloid fibril formation process, which is noticeably delayed at as low as a 0.01:1 scMN+8 to A?40 molar ratio. scMN+8 is also the mutant with the fastest association to A?40 as detected by surface plasmon resonance, although all retarding variants of calbindin D9k and single-chain monellin bind to A?40.
