SEM1(68-107) is a peptide corresponding to the region of semenogelin 1 protein from 68 to 107 amino acid position. SEM1(68-107) is an abundant component of semen, which participates in HIV infection enhanced by amyloid fibrils forming. To understand the causes influencing amyloid fibril formation, it is necessary to determine the spatial structure of SEM1(68-107). It was shown that the determination of SEM1(68-107) structure is complicated by the non-informative NMR spectra due to the high...

NMR Studies of the Ion Channel-Forming Human Amyloid-beta with Zinc Ion Concentrations
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is classified as an amyloid-related disease. Amyloid beta (A?) is a transmembrane protein known to play a major role in the pathogenesis of AD. These A? proteins can form ion channels or pores in the cell membrane. Studies have elucidated the structure of the transmembrane domain of A? ion channels. In addition, various studies have investigated substances that block or inhibit the formation of A? ion channels. Zinc ions are considered as potential inhibitors of AD. In...

Exploring interactions between lipids and amyloid-forming proteins: a review for applying fluorescence and NMR techniques
A hallmark of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other amyloid diseases is the assembly of amyloid proteins into amyloid aggregates or fibrils. In many cases, the formation and cytotoxicity of amyloid assemblies are associated with their interaction with cell membranes. Despite studied for many years, the characterization of the interaction is challenged for reasons on the multiple aggregation states of amyloid-forming proteins, transient and weak interactions in the complex...
