Citation | Journal: J Mol Biol / Year: 2024 Title: The Positively Charged Cluster in the N-terminal Disordered Region may Affect Prion Protein Misfolding: Cryo-EM Structure of Hamster PrP(23-144) Fibrils. Authors: Chih-Hsuan Lee / Jing-Ee Saw / Eric H-L Chen / Chun-Hsiung Wang / Takayuki Uchihashi / Rita P-Y Chen / Abstract: Prions, the misfolding form of prion proteins, are contagious proteinaceous macromolecules. Recent studies have shown that infectious prion fibrils formed in the brain and non-infectious fibrils ...Prions, the misfolding form of prion proteins, are contagious proteinaceous macromolecules. Recent studies have shown that infectious prion fibrils formed in the brain and non-infectious fibrils formed from recombinant prion protein in a partially denaturing condition have distinct structures. The amyloid core of the in vitro-prepared non-infectious fibrils starts at about residue 160, while that of infectious prion fibrils formed in the brain involves a longer sequence (residues ∼90-230) of structural conversion. The C-terminal truncated prion protein PrP(23-144) can form infectious fibrils under certain conditions and cause disease in animals. In this study, we used cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to resolve the structure of hamster sHaPrP(23-144) fibrils prepared at pH 3.7. This 2.88 Å cryo-EM structure has an amyloid core covering residues 94-144. It comprises two protofilaments, each containing five β-strands arranged as a long hairpin plus an N-terminal β-strand. This N-terminal β-strand resides in a positively charged cluster region (named PCC2; sequence 96-111), which interacts with the turn region of the opposite protofilaments' hairpin to stabilize the fibril structure. Interestingly, this sHaPrP(23-144) fibril structure differs from a recently reported structure formed by the human or mouse counterpart at pH 6.5. Moreover, sHaPrP(23-144) fibrils have many structural features in common with infectious prions. Whether this structure is infectious remains to be determined. More importantly, the sHaPrP(23-144) structure is different from the sHaPrP(108-144) fibrils prepared in the same fibrillization buffer, indicating that the N-terminal disordered region, possibly the positively charged cluster, influences the misfolding pathway of the prion protein. | ||||||||||||
