Abstract

An initial stage of fibrillogenesis in solutions of glutathione S-transferase-huntingtin (GST-HD) fusion proteins has been studied by using dynamic light scattering. Two GST-HD systems with poly-L-glutamine (polyGln) extensions of different lengths (20 and 51 residues) have been examined. For both systems, kinetics of z-average translation diffusion coefficients (Dapp) and their angular dependence have been obtained. Our data reveal that aggregation does occur in both GST-HD51 and GST-HD20 solutions, but that it is much more pronounced in the former. Thus, our approach provides a powerful tool for the quantitative assay of GST-HD fibrillogenesis in vitro.
