TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Structural features of proinsulin C-peptide oligomeric and amyloid states

The formation and structure of proinsulin C-peptide oligomers has been investigated by PAGE, NMR spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering. The results obtained show that C-peptide forms oligomers of different sizes, and that their formation and size distribution is altered by salt and divalent metal ions, which indicates that the aggregation process is medi-ated by electrostatic interactions. | ỊFEBS Journal Structural features of proinsulin C-peptide oligomeric and amyloid states I I I 1 I I I I I 2.

The results obtained show that C-peptide forms oligomers of different sizes and that their formation and size distribution is altered by salt and divalent metal ions which indicates that the aggregation process is mediated by electrostatic interactions. It is further demonstrated that the size distribution of the C-peptide oligomers in agreement with previous studies is altered by insulin which supports a physiologically relevant interaction between these two peptides. A small fraction of oligomers has previously been suggested to be in equilibrium with a dominant fraction of soluble monomers and this pattern also is observed in the present study. The addition of modest amounts of sodium dodecyl sulphate at low pH increases the relative amount of oligomers and this effect was used to investigate the details of both oligomer formation and structure by a .
