Aggregation and the Intrinsic Structural Disorder of Dipeptide Repeat Peptides of C9orf72-Related Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia Characterized by NMR

Dipeptide repeats (DPRs) are known to play important roles in C9ORF72-related amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Studies on DPRs have reported on the kinetics of aggregation, toxicity, and low-resolution morphology of the aggregates of these peptides. While the dipeptide hexa-repeats of Gly-Pro [(GP)(6)] have been shown to be nonaggregating, Gly-Ala [(GA)(6)] and Gly-Arg [(GR)(6)] exhibited the formation of neurotoxic aggregates. However, structural studies of...
