Thermodynamic Stability Modulates Chaperone-Mediated Disaggregation of α-Synuclein Fibrils
Open accessPreprint — published as 10.1039/d5sc04927j
Abstract
The aggregation of the intrinsically disordered protein alpha-synuclein into amyloid fibrils and their subsequent intracellular accumulation are characteristic features of several neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease. Currently, there are no curative treatment options available. In this study, we demonstrate that the thermodynamic stability of alpha-synuclein fibrils is a crucial factor influencing the efficiency with which they are disaggregated by the human chaperone system comprising HSP70, DNAJB1, and Apg2. We quantify the increasing stability of alpha-synuclein fibrils formed under four different solution conditions over a three-month incubation period. The chaperone system effectively disaggregates three out of the four fibril types, with varying efficiencies that correlate with their thermodynamic stability. The fibrils exhibit differential sensitivities to chaperone-mediated depolymerization, suggesting that both structural features and thermodynamic stability contribute to the susceptibility of alpha-synuclein fibrils to chaperone disaggregation. Our findings thus reveal a connection between the thermodynamic stability of fibrils and their susceptibility to chaperone-mediated disaggregation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
