The influence of lipid molecules on the aggregation of a highly amyloidogenic segment of human islet amyloid polypeptide, hIAPP20–29, and the corresponding sequence from rat has been studied by all-atom replica exchange molecular dynamics (REMD) simulations with explicit solvent model. hIAPP20–29 fragments aggregate into partially ordered β-sheet oligomers and then undergo large conformational reorganization and convert into parallel/antiparallel β-sheet oligomers in mixed in-register and out-of-register patterns. The hydrophobic interaction between lipid tails and residues at positions 23–25 is found to stabilize the ordered β-sheet structure, indicating a catalysis role of lipid molecules in hIAPP20–29 self-assembly. The rat IAPP variants with three proline residues maintain unstructured micelle-like oligomers, which is consistent with non-amyloidogenic behavior observed in experimental studies. Our study provides the atomic resolution descriptions of the catalytic function of lipid molecules on the aggregation of IAPP peptides. People diagnosed with diabetes have increased from 30 million to 246 million over the last two decades. One hallmark of type 2 diabetes is the formation of amyloid in the pancreatic islet, which is composed of human islet amyloid polypeptide (90%) and lipid molecules (10%). In the long-lasting endeavors against the disease, it is important to understand, at the atomic level, the interaction between peptide aggregation and lipid molecules. In this study, we use molecular dynamics simulations to explore the influence of lipid molecules on the self-assembly process of toxic peptide segments. Moreover, a negative control simulation, employing the non-amyloidogenic rodent sequence, is also performed to evaluate the robustness of the simulation protocol. Our study provides a generic picture of the catalytic role of lipid molecules in the process of amyloidogenesis.
