Résumé

Transthyretin (TTR) is a small, β-sheet-rich tetrameric protein that transports thyroid hormone thyroxine and retinol. Phospholipids, including phosphatidic acid (PA), can uniquely alter the stability of amyloidogenic proteins. However, the role of PA in TTR aggregation remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effect of saturation of fatty acids (FAs) in PA on the rate of TTR aggregation. We also reveal the extent to which PAs with different length and saturation of FAs altered the morphology and secondary structure of TTR aggregates. Our results showed that TTR aggregation in the equimolar presence of PAs with different length and saturation of FAs yielded structurally and morphologically different fibrils compared to those formed in the lipid-free environment. We also found that PAs drastically lowered the toxicity of TTR aggregates formed in the presence of this phospholipid. These results shed light on the role of PA in the stability of TTR and transthyretin amyloidosis.
