Since early oligomeric intermediates in amyloid assembly are often transient and
difficult to distinguish, characterize and quantify, the mechanistic basis of the
initiation of spontaneous amyloid growth is often opaque. We describe here an
approach to the analysis of the A? aggregation mechanism that uses
A?-polyglutamine hybrid peptides designed to retard amyloid maturation and an
adjusted thioflavin intensity scale that reveals structural features of
aggregation intermediates. The results support an aggregation initiation
mechanism for A?-polyQ hybrids, and by extension for full-length A? peptides, in
which a modular A? C-terminal segment mediates rapid, non-nucleated formation of
?-helical oligomers. The resulting high local concentration of tethered
amyloidogenic segments within these ?-oligomers facilitates transition to a
?-oligomer population that, via further remodelling and/or elongation steps,
ultimately generates mature amyloid. Consistent with this mechanism, an
engineered A? C-terminal fragment delays aggregation onset by A?-polyglutamine
peptides and redirects assembly of A?42 fibrils.
