Owing to their biocompatibility and biodegradability, short synthetic peptides that self-assemble into elongated β-sheet fibers (i.e., peptide nanofibers) are widely used to create biomaterials for diverse medical and biotechnology applications. Glycosylation, which is a common protein post-translational modification, is gaining interest for creating peptide nanofibers that can mimic the function of natural carbohydrate-modified proteins. Recent reports have shown that glycosylation can disrupt the fibrillization of natural amyloid-forming peptides. Here, using transmission electron microscopy, fluorescence microscopy, and thioflavin T spectroscopy we show that glycosylation at a site external to the fibrillization domain can alter the self-assembly pathway of a synthetic fibrillizing peptide, NSGSGQQKFQFQFEQQ (NQ11). Specifically, an NQ11 variant modified with N-linked N-acetylglucosamine, N(GlcNAc)SGSG-Q11 (GQ11), formed β-sheet nanofibers more slowly than NQ11 in deionized water (pH 5.8), which correlated with the tendency of GQ11 to form a combination of short fibrils and non-fibrillar aggregates, whereas NQ11 formed extended nanofibers. Acidic phosphate buffer slowed the rate of GQ11 fibrillization and altered the morphology of the structures formed, yet had no effect on NQ11 fibrillization rate or morphology. Buffer ionic strength had no effect on the fibrillization rate of either peptide, while diphosphate anion had a similar effect on the rate of fibrillization of both peptides. Collectively, these data demonstrate that a glycan moiety located external to the β-sheet fibrillizing domain can alter the pH-dependent self-assembly pathway of a synthetic peptide, leading to significant changes in the fibril mass and morphology of the structures formed. These observations add to the understanding of the effect of glycosylation on peptide self-assembly, and should guide future efforts to develop biomaterials from synthetic β-sheet fibrillizing glycopeptides.
