Hereditary apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) amyloidosis is a life-threatening incurable genetic disorder whose molecular underpinnings are unclear. In this disease, variant apoA-I, the major structural and functional protein of high-density lipoprotein, is released in a free form, undergoes an α-helix to intermolecular cross-β-sheet conversion along with a proteolytic cleavage, and is deposited as amyloid fibrils in various organs, which can cause organ damage and death. Glu34Lys is the only known charge inversion mutation in apoA-I that causes human amyloidosis. To elucidate the structural underpinnings of the amyloidogenic behavior of Glu34Lys apoA-I, we generated its recombinant globular N-terminal domain (residues 1–184) and compared the conformation and dynamics of its lipid-free form with those of two other naturally occurring apoA-I variants, Phe71Tyr (amyloidogenic) and Leu159Arg (non-amyloidogenic). All variants showed reduced structural stability and altered aromatic residue packing. The greatest decrease in stability was observed in the non-amyloidogenic variant, suggesting that amyloid formation is driven by local structural perturbations at sensitive sites. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed local helical unfolding and suggested that transient opening of the Trp72 side chain induced mutation-dependent structural perturbations in a sensitive region, including the major amyloid hot spot residues Leu14–Leu22. We posit that a shift from the “closed” to the “open” orientation of the Trp72 side chain modulates structural protection of amyloid hot spots, suggesting a previously unknown early step in the protein misfolding pathway.
