Effects of sedimentation, microgravity, hydrodynamic mixing and air-water interface on alpha-synuclein amyloid formation

Giovanni Dietler, Giovanni Longo, Jiangtao Zhou, Francesco Simone Ruggeri

The formation of amyloid fibrils is a characterizing feature of a range of protein misfolding diseases, including Parkinson's disease. The propensity of native proteins to form such amyloid fibril, both in vitro and in vivo, is highly sensitive to the surr ...

The Nt17 Domain and its Helical Conformation Regulate the Aggregation, Cellular Properties and Neurotoxicity of Mutant Huntingtin Exon 1

Giovanni Dietler, Hilal Lashuel, Anne-Laure Mahul Mellier, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Anass Chiki, Sean Michael Deguire, Urszula Beata Cendrowska, Sophie Vieweg, Nathan Alain Denis Riguet

Converging evidence points to the N-terminal domain comprising the first 17 amino acids of the Huntingtin protein (Nt17) as a key regulator of its aggregation, cellular properties and toxicity. In this study, we further investigated the interplay between N ...

Hierarchical Protofilament Intertwining Rules the Formation of Mixed‐Curvature Amyloid Polymorphs

Giovanni Dietler, Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Serguei Sekatski, Meltem Tatli, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Jiangtao Zhou

Amyloid polymorphism is a hallmark of almost all amyloid species, yet the mechanisms underlying the formation of amyloid polymorphs and their complex architectures remain elusive. Commonly, two main mesoscopic topologies are found in amyloid polymorphs cha ...
