Amyloid formation is initiated by protein misfolding, followed by self-association to ultimately form amyloid fibrils. The discovery of toxic prefibrillar oligomers in many amyloidosis underscores the importance of understanding the folding mechanism prior to such aggregation. Here, we investigated the folding properties of the natively unfolded amyloid- (cid:1) (A (cid:1) ) peptide and the familial variants (A21G, E22Q, E22G, E22K, and D23N) in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In combinations of native electrophoresis, analytical ultracentrifugation, fluorescence emission, and far-UV circular dichroism, we showed that all A (cid:1) 40 variants are predominantly monomeric with similar residual secondary structures, but distinct hydrophobic-exposed protein surfaces. Guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl) denaturation in the absence and presence of trifluoro-ethanol (TFE) showed that A (cid:1) variants adopt an apparent 2-state equilibrium model with different stabilities, in which wild type is less stable than A21G but more stable than D23N and E22 mutants. By correlating the folding stability with the nucleation phase in fibrillization, we found the more stable the variant, the slower the nucleation, except for D23N. Besides, the unfolding of A (cid:1) conformation leads to reduced formation of mature fibrils, but an increase in nonfibrillar, amorphous type of aggregates. Overall, we demonstrated that folding stability of A (cid:1) is an important determinant of the nucleation kinetics.—Ni, C.-L., Shi, H.-P., Yu, H.-M., Chang, Y.-C., and Chen, Y.-R.
