[PMID: 38792033 PMCID: PMC11123990 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29102171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes of various peptide fragments of tau protein were studied by potentiometric and spectroscopic techniques. All peptides contained one histidyl residue and represented the sequences of tau(91-97) (Ac-AQPHTEI-NH2), tau(385-390) (Ac-KTDHGA-NH2) and tau(404-409) (Ac-SPRHLS-NH2). Imidazole-N donors of histidine were the primary metal binding sites for all peptides and all metal ions, but in the case of copper(II) and nickel(II), the deprotonated amide groups were also involved in metal binding by increasing pH. The most stable complexes were formed with copper(II) ions, but the presence of prolyl residues resulted in significant changes in the thermodynamic stability and speciation of the systems. It was also demonstrated that nickel(II) and especially zinc(II) complexes have relatively low thermodynamic stability with these peptides. The copper(II)-catalyzed oxidation of the peptides was also studied. In the presence of H2O2, the fragmentation of peptides was detected in all cases. In the simultaneous presence of H2O2 and ascorbic acid, the fragmentation of the peptide is less preferred, and the formation of 2-oxo-histidine also occurs.

Abstract
Although the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is still unclear, abnormally high concentrations of metal ions, like copper, iron and zinc, were found in senile plaques of AD brain, which inspires extensive studies on the fundamental molecular interactions of metal ions with the pathogenic hallmarks, amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides and tau proteins, respectively forming senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) in AD brains. Early works concern the concentration effect of the metal ions on Aβ and tau aggregation. Yet, it is obvious that the surrounding environment of the metal ions must also be considered, not just the metal ions as free accessible forms in the solution phase. The most important surrounding environment in vivo is a very large surface area from cell membranes and other macromolecular surfaces. These bio-interfaces make the kinetic pathways of metal ion mediated Aβ and tau aggregation radically different from those in the solution phase. To better understand the role of metal ions in AD peptide and protein aggregation, we summarize and discuss the recent achievements in the research of metal ion mediated Aβ and tau aggregation, particularly the corresponding mechanism differences between the solution phase and the surface environment. The metal ion chelation therapy for AD is also discussed from the point of the surface pool of metal ions.

Interactions between copper (II) and β-amyloid peptide using capillary electrophoresis-ICP-MS: Kd measurements at the nanogram scale. Anal Bioanal Chem 2021; 414:5347-5355.

Abstract
Although the interaction between the β-amyloid peptide and copper (II) appears to play an important role in Alzheimer's disease, the affinity constant is still controversial and values are ranging from 107 to 1011 M-1. With the aim of clarifying this point, a complementary method, based on the capillary electrophoresis-ICP-MS hyphenation, was developed and competitive binding experiments were conducted in the presence of nitrilotriacetic acid. The effect of the capillary surface (neutral or positively charged) and nature of the buffer (Tris or Hepes) have been studied. Tris buffer was found to be inappropriate for such determination as it enhances the dissociation of copper (II) complexes, already occurring in the presence of an electric field in capillary electrophoresis. Using Hepes, a value of 1010 M-1 was found for the affinity of the small β-amyloid peptide 1-16 for copper (II), which is in agreement with the values obtained for other proteins involved in neurodegenerative diseases. These constants were also determined in conditions closer to those of biological media (higher ionic strength, presence of carbonates).

Abstract
Nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes of various peptide fragments of tau protein have been investigated by potentiometric, UV-Vis, CD and ESI-MS techniques. The peptides include the native fragment tau(9-16) (Ac-EVMEDHAG-NH2), and the Gln/Lys and Tyr/Ala mutated peptides (Ac-KGGYTMHK-NH2 and Ac-KGGATMHK-NH2) of tau(26-33). Similar to copper(II) the complexes of a chimeric peptide containing both His14 and His32 residues in one molecule (Ac-EDHAGTMHQD-NH2) were also studied. The metal binding ability of the R3 domain was studied by using the native fragment tau(326-333) (Ac-GNIHHKPG-NH2), and its two mutants (Ac-GNIHHKAG-NH2) and (Ac-GNGHHKPG-NH2) and the corresponding 1-histidine mutants (Ac-GNGAHKPG-NH2 and Ac-GNGHAKPG-NH2). The results of this study reveal that the histidyl residues of the N-terminal and R3 regions of tau protein can effectively bind nickel(II) and zinc(II) ions. In the case of nickel(II) and zinc(II) the M-Nim coordinated complexes are the major species in the physiological pH range and their stability is significantly enhanced by the presence of Glu and Asp residues in the neighbourhood of the His14 site. For all studied peptides, nickel(II) ions are able to promote the deprotonation and coordination of amide groups preceding histidine resulting in the exclusive formation of square planar (Nim,3N-) complexes in alkaline solutions. The native fragment of the R3 region and its mutants containing two adjacent histidine moieties also bind only one nickel(II) ion with the His330 residue being the primary metal binding site. Exclusive binding of the independent imidazole side chains (His14 and His32 sites) cannot prevent the hydrolysis of zinc(II) in a slightly basic solution but the adjacent histidines of the R3 domain can promote the formation of amide coordinated zinc(II) complexes.

Nerve Growth Factor Peptides Bind Copper(II) with High Affinity: A Thermodynamic Approach to Unveil Overlooked Neurotrophin Roles. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22105085.

Abstract
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a protein essential to neurons survival, which interacts with its receptor as a non-covalent dimer. Peptides belonging to NGF N-terminal domain are able to mimic the activity of the whole protein. Such activity is affected by the presence of copper ions. The metal is released in the synaptic cleft where proteins, not yet identified, may bind and transfer to human copper transporter 1 (hCtr1), for copper uptake in neurons. The measurements of the stability constants of copper complexes formed by amyloid beta and hCtr1 peptide fragments suggest that beta-amyloid (Aβ) can perform this task. In this work, the stability constant values of copper complex species formed with the dimeric form of N-terminal domain, sequence 1–15 of the protein, were determined by means of potentiometric measurements. At physiological pH, NGF peptides bind one equivalent of copper ion with higher affinity of Aβ and lower than hCtr1 peptide fragments. Therefore, in the synaptic cleft, NGF may act as a potential copper chelating molecule, ionophore or chaperone for hCtr1 for metal uptake. Copper dyshomeostasis and mild acidic environment may modify the balance between metal, NGF, and Aβ, with consequences on the metal cellular uptake and therefore be among causes of the Alzheimer’s disease onset.

Abstract
The copper(II) complexes of a peptide fragment of the R3 domain of tau protein (tau(326-333) Ac-GNIHHKPG-NH2) and its mutants (Ac-GNGHHKPG-NH2, Ac-GNIHHKAG-NH2, Ac-GNGAHKPG-NH2 and Ac-GNGHAKPG-NH2) have been studied by potentiometric and spectroscopic (UV-Vis, CD) methods. ESR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry were also used to prove the coordination mode of the mononuclear complexes and the formation of dinuclear species, respectively. It has been demonstrated that the (326-333) fragment of tau protein is a versatile and effective ligand for copper(II) coordination. The versatility of copper(II) binding is related to the presence of two adjacent histidyl residues in the sequence, which results in the coexistence of mononuclear, bis(ligand) and dinuclear complexes at different metal to ligand ratios. The 1:1 mononuclear complexes are, however, the dominant species with all peptides and the imidazole-N and one to three deprotonated amide nitrogen atoms towards the N-terminal side of the histidyl residue have been suggested as metal binding sites. This binding mode allows the formation of coordination isomers because any of the two histidine moieties can be the primary anchoring site. It is evident from the CD spectroscopic measurements that the isomers are present in almost equal concentration. The copper(II) binding affinity of the native fragment of tau protein is comparable to that of a similar 2-histidine fragment of amyloid-β mutant, Ac-SGAEGHHQK-NH2 but the comparison with an independent histidyl residue (H32) from the N-terminal region of the protein reveals the predominance of H32 over the histidines in the R3 domain.

Abstract
A series of 11-substituted sampangine derivatives have been designed, synthesized, and tested for their ability to inhibit cholinesterase. Their chelating ability and selectivity for Cu2+ over other biologically relevant metal ions were demonstrated by isothermal titration calorimetry. Their blood-brain barrier permeability was also tested by parallel artificial membrane permeation assay. Among the synthesized derivatives, compound 11 with the strong anti-acetylcholinesterase activity, high blood-brain barrier penetration ability and high binding affinity to Cu2+ was selected for further research. Western blotting analysis, transmission electron microscopy, DCFH-DA assay and paralysis experiment indicated that compound 11 suppressed the formation of Cu2+-Aβ complexes, alleviated the Cu2+ induced neurotoxicity and inhibited the production of ROS catalyzed by Cu2+ in Aβ42 transgenic C. elegans. Moreover, compound 11 also inhibited the expressions of proinflammatory cytokines, such as NO, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β, induced by Cu2+ + Aβ1-42 in BV2 microglial cells. In general, this work provided new insights into the design and development of potent metal-chelating agents for AD treatment.

Abstract
The reliable determination of the Ag(I) affinity for biomolecules is an essential issue in the fields of structural analysis and sensor design. However, the urgent problem confronting researchers is lack of a direct and accurate Ag(I) affinity evaluation as a reference standard for ligand analysis. We communicated here a straightforward and high-efficiency method of measuring Ag(I) affinity exactly on the basis of the unique calculation algorithm and the design of a special peptide RFPRDD (P) as Ag(I) binding motif. According to UV-vis competition between the corresponding complexes (AgP) and biomolecules (peptides, amino acids and ssDNA), the decrease of the signature at 300 nm characteristic of AgP was obtained for quantitative analysis. The primary advantages of this strategy were the widespread application, high accuracy and reference significance, which were corroborated by theoretical calculations. To identify its potential in biosensing, two kinds of testing models for Ag(I) were proposed by AgBP2-decorated and Ag4-decorated gold nanoparticles, the detection limits of which were 2 nM and 75 nM respectively. By contrast of the sensing property of the functional peptides (AgBP2, Ag4), we afforded evidence that this conception could be regarded as an evaluation criterion for the selection and performance optimization of sensitive elements, thereby holding a dominant position in the biosensors.

Abstract
Copper(II) complexes of the N-terminal peptide fragments of tau protein have been studied by potentiometric and various spectroscopic techniques (UV-vis, CD, ESR and ESI-MS). The octapeptide Tau(9-16) (Ac-EVMEDHAG-NH2 ) contains the H14 residue of the native protein, while Tau(26-33) (Ac-QGGYTMHQ-NH2 ) and its mutants Tau(Q26K-Q33K) (Ac-KGGYTMHK-NH2 ) and Tau(Q26K-Y29A-Q33K) (Ac-KGGATMHK-NH2 ) include the H32 residue. To compare the binding ability of H14 and H32 in a single molecule the decapeptide Ac-EDHAGTMHQD-NH2 (Tau(12-16)(30-34)) has also been synthesized and studied. The histidyl residue is the primary metal binding site for metal ions in all the peptide models studied. In the case of Tau(9-16) the side chain carboxylate functions enhance the stability of the M-Nim coordinated complexes compared to Tau(26-33) (logK(Cu-Nim )=5.04 and 3.78, respectively). Deprotonation and metal ion coordination of amide groups occur around the physiological pH range for copper(II). The formation of the imidazole- and amide-coordinated species changes the metal ion preference and the complexes formed with the peptides containing the H32 residue predominate over those of H14 at physiological pH values (90 %-10 %) and in alkaline samples (96 %-4 %).

Quantitative prediction of electronic absorption spectra of copper(II)-bioligand systems: Validation and applications. J Inorg Biochem 2019; 204:110953.

Abstract
The visible region of the electronic absorption spectra of Cu(II) complexes was studied by time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). The performance of twelve functionals in the prediction of absorption maxima (λmax) was tested on eleven compounds with different geometry, donors and charge. The ranking of the functionals for λmax was determined in terms of mean absolute percent deviation (MAPD) and standard deviation (SD) and it is as follows: BHandHLYP > M06 ≫ CAM-B3LYP ≫ MPW1PW91 ~ B1LYP ~ BLYP > HSE06 ~ B3LYP > B3P86 ~ ω-B97x-D ≫ TPSSh ≫ M06-2X (MAPD) and BHandHLYP > M06 ~ HSE06 > ω-B97x-D ~ CAM-B3LYP ~ MPW1PW91 > B1LYP ~ B3LYP > B3P86 > BLYP ≫ TPSSh ≫ M06-2X (SD). With BHandHLYP functional the MAPD is 3.1% and SD is 2.3%, while with M06 the MAPD is 3.7% and SD is 3.7%. The protocol validated in the first step of the study was applied to: i) calculate the number of transitions in the spectra and relate them to the geometry of Cu(II) species; ii) determine the coordination of axial water(s); iii) predict the electronic spectra of the systems where Cu(II) is bound to human serum albumin (HSA) and to the regions 94-97 and 108-112 of prion protein (PrP). The results indicate that the proposed computational protocol allows a successful prediction of the electronic spectra of Cu(II) species and to relate an experimental spectrum to a specific structure.

Zn 2+ Interaction with Amyloid-Β: Affinity and Speciation. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24152796.

Abstract
Conflicting values, obtained by different techniques and often under different experimental conditions have been reported on the affinity of Zn2+ for amyloid-β, that is recognized as the major interaction responsible for Alzheimer’s disease. Here, we compare the approaches employed so far, i.e., the evaluation of Kd and the determination of the stability constants to quantitatively express the affinity of Zn2+ for the amyloid-β peptide, evidencing the pros and cons of the two approaches. We also comment on the different techniques and conditions employed that may lead to divergent data. Through the analysis of the species distribution obtained for two selected examples, we show the implications that the speciation, based on stoichiometric constants rather than on Kd, may have on data interpretation. The paper also demonstrates that the problem is further complicated by the occurrence of multiple equilibria over a relatively narrow pH range.

Abstract
Equilibrium and detailed spectroscopic characterization of zinc(ii) complexes with NiSOD binding loop and their related model fragments are reported in the whole investigated pH-range. The zinc(ii) complexes of L1 (HCDLPCGVY-NH2), L2 (Ac-HCDLPCGVY-NH2) and L3 (HCDLACGVY-NH2) and the nickel(ii) and zinc(ii) complexes of L4 (HCDLPCG-NH2) were studied by pH-potentiometric and several spectroscopic methods. The results indicated that the macrochelate coordinated zinc(ii) complexes are dominant in a whole pH-range and the side chain donors of the peptides are involved in the metal binding. Therefore, the deprotonation and coordination of the peptide backbone occur only in a strongly alkaline solution. The acetylation of the peptide amino terminus (L2) significantly enhances the zinc(ii) binding ability compared to the corresponding nickel(ii) complexes. L2 complexes of zinc(ii) are 2 or 3 orders of magnitude more stable than the corresponding nickel(ii) complexes. This effect clearly shows the crucial role of the terminal amino group in the nickel binding for the NiSOD enzyme.

Abstract
Aβ(1-40) peptide is mutated to introduce cysteine residue to allow formation of organized self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au electrodes. Three mutants of this peptide are produced, which vary in the position of the inserted cysteine residue. Fourier transform infrared data on these peptide SAMs show the presence of both α helices and β sheet in these Aβ constructs. These peptide constructs interact with cytochrome c (Cytc), allowing electron transfer between Cytc and the electrode via the Aβ peptides. Binding of metals like Zn2+ or Cu2+ induces changes in the morphologies of these assemblies, making them fold, which inhibits their spontaneous interaction with Cytc.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is known to play an important role in the pathogenesis of a number of diseases. In particular, it is linked to the etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), an age-related neurodegenerative disease and the most common cause of dementia in the elderly. Histopathological hallmarks of AD are intracellular neurofibrillary tangles and extracellular formation of senile plaques composed of the amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) in aggregated form along with metal-ions such as copper, iron or zinc. Redox active metal ions, as for example copper, can catalyze the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) when bound to the amyloid-β (Aβ). The ROS thus produced, in particular the hydroxyl radical which is the most reactive one, may contribute to oxidative damage on both the Aβ peptide itself and on surrounding molecule (proteins, lipids, …). This review highlights the existing link between oxidative stress and AD, and the consequences towards the Aβ peptide and surrounding molecules in terms of oxidative damage. In addition, the implication of metal ions in AD, their interaction with the Aβ peptide and redox properties leading to ROS production are discussed, along with both in vitro and in vivo oxidation of the Aβ peptide, at the molecular level.

Abstract
Increasing evidence is accumulating, showing that neurodegenerative disorders are somehow associated with the toxicity of amyloid aggregates, metal ion dyshomeostasis as well as with products generated by oxidative stress. Within the biological oxidation products, acrolein does have a prominent role. A promising strategy to deal with the above neurogenerative disorders is to use multi-functions bio-molecules. Herein, we show how a class of bio-conjugates takes advantage of the antiaggregating, antioxidant and antiglycating properties of trehalose and carnosine. Their ability to sequester acrolein and to inhibit both self- and metal-induced aggregation is here reported. The copper(II) coordination properties of a new trehalose-carnosine conjugate and the relative antioxidant effects have also been investigated.

Abstract
Being able to easily determine the Cu(II) affinity for biomolecules of moderate affinity is important. Such biomolecules include amyloidogenic peptides, such as the well-known amyloid-β peptide involved in Alzheimer's disease. Here, we report the synthesis of a new water-soluble ratiometric Cu(II) dye with a moderate affinity (109 M-1 at pH 7.1) and the characterizations of the Cu(II) corresponding complex by X-ray crystallography, EPR, and XAS spectroscopic methods. UV-vis competition was performed on the Aβ peptide as well as on a wide series of modified peptides, leading to an affinity value of 1.6 × 109 M-1 at pH 7.1 for the Aβ peptide and to a coordination model for the Cu(II) site within the Aβ peptide that agrees with the one mostly accepted currently.

Abstract
The present study addresses the reconstruction of the free-energy landscapes of amyloid-beta1-42 (Aβ42) coordinated respectively with one and two zinc ions, to scrutinize whether different Aβ-zinc complex species, i.e., mononuclear and dinuclear metal complexes, induce different Aβ conformation features. We found a subtle switch of intramolecular interactions, depending both on the zinc coordination environment and on the peptide to zinc stoichiometric ratio. On the one side, hairpin-like structures are predominant in mononuclear complexes, where a salt-bridge that involves Lys28-Glu22 and Lys16-Asp23 is stabilized. On the other side, elongated conformations are instead stabilized in the dinuclear zinc complexes. Experimental studies of atomic force microscopy as well as of zinc-Aβ complex species distribution diagrams provide evidence that the theoretical calculations can be rationalized in terms of the correlation between the increased amount of amorphous aggregates and the Aβ/Zn(2+) ratio.

Abstract
Pancreatic islets in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients are characterized by reduced β-cells mass and diffuse extracellular amyloidosis. Amyloid deposition involves the islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), a neuropancreatic hormone cosecreted with insulin by β-cells. IAPP is physiologically involved in glucose homeostasis, but it may turn toxic to β-cells owing to its tendency to misfold giving rise to oligomers and fibrils. The process by which the unfolded IAPP starts to self-assemble and the overall factors promoting this conversion are poorly understood. Other open questions are related to the nature of the IAPP toxic species and how exactly β-cells die. Over the last decades, there has been growing consensus about the notion that early molecular assemblies, notably small hIAPP oligomers, are the culprit of β-cells decline. Numerous environmental factors might affect the conformational, aggregation, and cytotoxic properties of IAPP. Herein we review recent progress in the field, focusing on the influences that membranes, pH, and metal ions may have on the conformational conversion and cytotoxicity of full-length IAPP as well as peptide fragments thereof. Current theories proposed for the mechanisms of toxicity will be also summarized together with an outline of the underlying molecular links between IAPP and amyloid beta (Aβ) misfolding.

Abstract
Recent evidence shows that metal coordination by amyloid beta peptides (Aβ) determines structural alterations of peptides, and His-13 from Aβ is crucial for Cu(2+) binding. This study used the truncated, more soluble Aβ1-16 isoforms derived from human and rat amyloid peptides to explore their interaction with Cu(2+) by employing the membrane-immobilized α-hemolysin (α-HL) protein as a nanoscopic probe in conjunction with single-molecule electrophysiology techniques. Unexpectedly, the experimental data suggest that unlike the case of the human Aβ1-16 peptide, Cu(2+) complexation by its rat counterpart leads to an augmented association and dissociation kinetics of the peptide reversible interaction with the protein pore, as compared to the Cu(2+)-free peptide. Single-molecule electrophysiology data reveal that both human and rat Cu(2+)-complexed Aβ peptides induce a higher degree of current flow obstruction through the α-HL pore, as compared to the Cu(2+)-free peptides. It is suggested that morphology changes brought by Cu(2+) binding to such amyloidic fragments depend crucially upon the presence of the His-13 residue on the primary sequence of such peptide fragments, and the α-HL protein-based approach provides unique opportunities and challenges to probing metal-induced folding of peptides.
